My city (Cincinnati, Ohio) is also moving an app-based street parking model. You pay via phone app and don't have to worry about carrying quarters. There's a petty credit card surcharge of like $0.25, but it's understandable given the low amount of the transaction. The biggest downside to our system is paying via app doesn't reflect on the meter so you see "EXPIRED" making you feel a little uncomfortable about the whole thing. I wonder if they just don't have a way in the infrastructure to update meters over the web.
