I racked up some parking tickets when I worked downtown. Best advice I can give is on the back of the ticket, it will give you the info to contest online. Just state exactly what you did above for your reasoning and they usually lower the fine. You have nothing to lose by contesting, the worst thing they can do is say no. But with the app not loading that wasn’t in your control and I think is a valid excuse to be dismissed or lowered.
