A community isn't showing in the Patrol app
Last updated: November 5, 2026
If an officer can't see a community in the ParkingPass Patrol app, it's usually one of four causes. Start with the quick checks below.
Quick checks
Confirm the officer is using the ParkingPass Patrol app, not a similar app.
Update the app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
Log out, then log back in.
Check whether the officer can see your other communities.
Common causes and fixes
The officer doesn't have access to that community
What you'll see: the officer sees some communities but not this one.
How to fix it: email support@parkingpass.com with the officer's name, email, and the community name. Support adds the community to their login. See Adding or reactivating a patroller account.
The app is out of date
What you'll see: communities don't load, buttons don't respond, or the app looks different from other officers' phones.
How to fix it: update the ParkingPass Patrol app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Then close the app fully and reopen it.
The wrong app is installed
What you'll see: the login works, but no communities appear.
How to fix it: delete the app. Search the store for ParkingPass Patrol by name, install it, and log in again.
The community's map boundary doesn't cover where you're patrolling
What you'll see: the app doesn't check the officer in, or checks them out, while they're still on-site. This is common for communities with more than one lot or building.
How to fix it: email support@parkingpass.com with the community name and the area that isn't covered. Support reviews the community's map boundary.
