Alert apps tell you. Curbswap does it.
SweepSpotter and Beat the Sweep are solid reminder apps — they notify you so YOU can go move your car. Curbswap is the only one that sends a vetted driver to physically move and re-park it, then proves it with GPS coordinates and 4-angle photos.

Competitor details reflect each product’s own public App Store listings and websites as of July 2026. SweepSpotter and Beat the Sweep are trademarks of their respective owners; both are good at what they set out to do — they just don’t move your car.
A reminder still needs you. A move doesn’t.
Every alert app has the same failure mode: you’re asleep, in a meeting, or out of town — the notification fires, the sweeper comes, the $73 ticket lands anyway. With Curbswap, a vetted driver accesses your key through the SwapBox™, relocates the car before the restriction hits, re-parks it in a spot verified legal against live city rules, and your app shows the exact GPS coordinates plus before/after photos from all four angles. The ticket never happens — whether you saw the alert or not.
