Parkirno mjesto koje ti više ne treba
nekome je pola sata kruženja manje. The parking space you no longer need
is half an hour someone else does not spend circling.

Svi se vrtimo u krug tražeći parking, i svi smo, prije ili poslije, onaj koji upravo odlazi. Ono što ti u tom trenutku više ne treba nekome u tvojoj ulici štedi pola sata kruženja i tko zna koliko goriva.

Zato je ovo mala gesta, a ne usluga ni trgovina. Javiš da odlaziš, netko dođe, mjesto se preda dalje. Sutra si ti taj koji traži.

Da gesta i ostane mala, postoji jedno pravilo: vozač koji odlazi nikada ne čeka. Kreneš točno kad si i planirao. Ne dogovaraš se, ne pozdravljaš, ne gubiš ni minute. Čeka onaj koji dolazi. A ako ne stigne na vrijeme, mjesto mu se neće ni ponuditi:

dolazak ≤ (odlazak − sada) − rezerva

Mjesto vidiš kao krug, ne kao točnu poziciju, sve dok ne postane tvoje. Tablice su kriptirane, pa drugi vide samo ST ••• AB sve dok se stvarno ne sretnete. Karta je naša vlastita, napravljena iz OpenStreetMapa. Tvoja pozicija ne ide ni Googleu ni bilo kome trećem.

Ako u blizini trenutno nema nikoga, možeš ostaviti radar. Obavijest ti stigne čim se netko u tom krugu spremi otići. Da bi stigla i kad je aplikacija zatvorena, dodaj je na početni zaslon.

iPhone: otvori test.spotpass.app u Safariju, pa Podijeli, pa Dodaj na početni zaslon. Pokreni je s ikone i dopusti obavijesti. Drukčije na iPhoneu ne rade uopće, i to je Appleovo ograničenje, ne naše.

Android: otvori u Chromeu, pa izbornik s tri točke, pa Instaliraj aplikaciju. Obavijesti rade i bez toga, ali instalirana se ne gasi kad zatvoriš karticu.

Na telefonima bez Google servisa (GrapheneOS, /e/OS) push često nije dostupan. Tada radar radi samo dok je aplikacija otvorena, i aplikacija će ti to reći umjesto da obeća obavijest koja ne može stići.

Ovo je test i radi u Splitu, Zagrebu i Dubrovniku. Za sada nas je malo, pa svaka najava nekome stvarno skrati traženje.

Ne moraš mijenjati ništa u danu. Kad sljedeći put sjedneš u auto, javi. Toliko.

We all circle looking for a space, and sooner or later we are all the one who is leaving. What you no longer need at that moment saves someone on your street half an hour of circling and who knows how much fuel.

So this is a small courtesy, not a service and not a trade. You say you are going, someone comes, the space is passed on. Tomorrow you are the one looking.

For the courtesy to stay small, there is one rule: the leaving driver never waits. You go exactly when you planned to. No arranging, no greeting, not a minute lost. The waiting is done by whoever is arriving. And if they cannot get there in time, the space is never offered to them:

arrival ≤ (departure − now) − reserve

You see a circle, not an exact position, until the space is yours. Plates are encrypted, so others only ever see ST ••• AB until you actually meet. The map is our own, built from OpenStreetMap. Your position does not go to Google or to anyone else.

If nobody is nearby right now, you can leave a radar running. You get a notification the moment someone in that circle is about to leave. For it to arrive while the app is closed, add it to your home screen.

iPhone: open test.spotpass.app in Safari, then Share, then Add to Home Screen. Launch it from the icon and allow notifications. There is no other way on iPhone, and that is Apple's limit rather than ours.

Android: open it in Chrome, then the three-dot menu, then Install app. Notifications work without this, but an installed app is not killed when you close the tab.

On phones without Google services (GrapheneOS, /e/OS) push is often unavailable. The radar then only runs while the app is open, and the app says so rather than promising a notification that cannot arrive.

This is a test, and it runs in Split, Zagreb and Dubrovnik. There are few of us so far, which means every announcement genuinely shortens someone's search.

Nothing about your day has to change. Next time you get in the car to drive off, say so. That is all of it.
