How to Check Where the Car is Parked?

First, if the vehicle itself comes with GPS positioning functionality, you can check the car's location via a mobile app. If the vehicle does not have built-in GPS positioning, you can only locate the car by installing a GPS device yourself. In other words, to find the car's position online, the prerequisite is that the vehicle must have GPS. Relevant details are as follows: 1. Install GPS: Equip the car with a GPS tracking device, which automatically records and allows you to query historical activity tracks anytime. It helps design the optimal visiting route and provides details such as the name of the person or vehicle, positioning time, and current location information. 2. The Role of GPS: A GPS satellite tracking device uses GPS satellite positioning terminals to accurately locate remote targets, track them in real-time, enable remote listening, and provide anti-theft and anti-hijacking features. You can query the target's location anytime, anywhere via mobile phone, internet, or PDA, and track the target's movement direction in real-time while listening to sounds within a 515-meter radius. Whether the target is in a room or basement, precise positioning is possible. With a GPS satellite tracker, you can rest assured about the target's whereabouts.
I have a poor memory, so I always mark my parking spot on my phone's map app after parking. Nowadays, smartphones all have this feature. After parking, just open Baidu or Amap, long-press the current location to add a label like 'Parking Spot'. Before leaving the car, I take a photo of the surroundings, such as the mall entrance or distinctive signs, which makes it easier to find my way back by referring to the photo. If parked in an underground garage, I immediately note the parking space number and zone color. If I really can't find my car, I try the car finder button on the key fob—most cars will flash lights and honk. The ultimate trick is to use the 'Car Location' feature in Alipay's car owner services, which connects to the OBD for real-time vehicle positioning.
