Parked Car alerts in Apple Maps is an amazing feature that helps you find your vehicle in crowded spaces. However, receiving the Parked Car alerts from Maps on iPhone can be annoying, especially when your car spends most of its time locked in your garage or the parking lot at your office. So, I will demonstrate how to turn off Parked Car alerts on your iPhone or iPad.
What are Parked Car alerts on iPhone?
The Parked Car feature marks your car’s current location in Apple Maps. This happens automatically when your iPhone or iPad disconnects from CarPlay or the Bluetooth stereo system.
As expected, the app is handy in public parking lots at malls, hospitals, cinemas, and other crowded spaces. Luckily, the iPhone allows you to turn the Parked Car Alerts on and off at your convenience. Follow the steps given here to turn off the parked car alert on iPhone in iOS 17.
How to disable Parked Car alerts from Apple Maps on iPhone
- Launch the Settings app.
- Scroll down and pick Maps.
- Go to the bottom of the page and toggle off Show Parked Location.
That’s it! Quite easy, right?
Bonus: Apple Maps allows you to remove the pinned location of your car as well. Simply tap and long-press on the pin appearing on the Maps. This will not entirely turn off the alerts but will stop showing the parked location in the Maps app on iPhone.
