The app shows nearby parks ranked by how crowded they are right now.

Not just “busy” or “not busy,” but something more practical:

quiet light activity moderate crowded packed

Then for each park, show the stuff people actually care about:

current crowd level crowd trend over the last 2 hours best times today parking difficulty dog friendliness playground busyness shade / sun exposure field availability restroom availability confidence

So instead of “find a park,” it becomes:

“Where can I walk right now without too many people?” “Which playground is not slammed?” “Where can I throw a frisbee without dodging crowds?” “Which dog park is lively but not chaotic?”
