How it works

Blocked in? Send a plip.

Scan the plate, choose a message, and it reaches the driver in seconds — privately, politely, and without anyone leaving a note on a windshield.

Good to know

Is this an official government app?

No. Plip is independent — no connection to the DMV, the police, or any parking authority. Messages here are just informal notes between neighbors.

Can I look up who owns a plate?

No. Plip never shows you a name, address, phone number, or any DMV data. Your note is delivered only because the owner registered their own plate on Plip — you never learn who they are, and they never learn who you are unless you want them to.

What if the person isn't on Plip yet?

We hold your plip safely. The moment that plate gets registered, your message lands in their inbox — so it's always worth sending.

Can people harass me through this?

Report or block with one tap. Every report is reviewed by a human, and repeat offenders lose their accounts. We take it seriously.

Is it really free?

Yes — free to sign up, free to send, free to receive. No credit card, ever.
