Google has developed a new feature that can locate your last car parking spot and the application which it beta-tested for Android users last month.

The parking location is determined through a combination of GPS, cell towers and known WiFi locations, a Google spokesperson

You can open up a "parking card" to add additional details about the parking spot such as the level of the parking garage or the amount of time left before the meter expires. Users can save an image of the spot and send their parking location to friends.

Apple launched a similar but automatic parking-detection tool for Apple Maps. If iOS users connect their iPhones to their cars using Bluetooth, their parking spots will be automatically added to the map with a pin when they disconnect and get out of their car. Google has offered a similar feature for iOS owners using Google Maps since March.
