Too Much Clutter

The App is great. Alas, recent updates have turned it into a plate of spaghetti. Hard to read. Lost the blue home dot. The original with the pin drops was much better, clearer. Hope to seer a change.

Response from developer

Thanks - the blue dot is back. Sorry about that. Appreciate the feedback on the number / size of stations showing. I’ll have a look at making it less in your face!

Disappointing

This app used to be good which is why I used it. Sadly does not show that many fuel stations now (well not in Mandurah region. I’m sitting at the 7eleven, not being shown in app, writing this.). Not sure why. Will have to look for a different app now.

Response to message I received : You sent a reply but how do I contact you?
All the fuel stations around me now have disappeared from your App (I have it set to show all stations).
I can send you screen shots with a competitors app to compare.

Response from developer

Please send it to cheapfuelwa@gmail.com The new update should show everything FuelWatch has so keen to try and help you

Very useful

Have used this for many years but after the recent update the tomorrow toggle has gone which is a major reason I use the app. Especially now with the fuel crisis.

Response from developer

New version is out now - on the main screen there’s a little calendar icon. Press it and the prices switch between today and tomorrow.

Ability to see after 2.30pm next day prices

This ability seems to have disappeared. Is this the case now

Ummm?

Just purchased and it’s suggesting there is no fuel within 10 kilometres of me… there is actually 4 stations within 3 kilometres plus a bunch more in Midland. Am I doing something wrong? Nice font by the way. I will give it a proper rating if I can get it to work.

Thanks for the reply Graeme… all working well now… have updated the stars 🙂

Response from developer

Thanks for this - I’ve had a look and can see stations around Midland. One thing to try - on the settings you can set your “region”. Try setting it to Perth Metro. This will bring back everything fuelwatch has in the metro area. The other thing it could be is, we try and limit the results shown on the screen to the best prices in the area to simplify the UI. It’s probably not this, but it’s worth trying to zoom in where you expect a station, to see if it’s hidden due to its cost. If neither of these work, please let me know the name of the station, and what fuel type you’re looking for. I’ll be able to dig in further with that information. Thanks, and sorry you’re having problems. Graeme

App crashes on IPhone X

This app used to work well but recently it started crashing on start-up and has not been working at all. Please urgently fix this as the app is actually really good when it works!

Thanks.

App has died

This app used to be fabulous, but two weeks ago it stopped loading....
Now it won’t open, and I was using the paid version too. Very disappointed.

Must be time for an update

This was the best app but have been having trouble getting it to load. Keeps bombing out.

Crashes

Best fuel app on the market for years, but it has all of a sudden started crashing as soon as it's opened. Please fix this urgently, as it is currently unusable. Best feature of this app - being able to compare today's and tomorrow's prices with the push of a button.

Great when it works

Love this app and use it everyday, however over the last month it no longer works. Deleted and reinstalled it and even deleted it and repurchased it with no joy... hope it gets fixed soon. Review update to follow

Didn’t work

I paid then tried to run this app. I was “flashed” an option screen asking whether I wished to Allow or to Disallow access to Location Services but in a split second the app exited. No matter how quickly or how often I tried to hit Allow the app exitted every time. That was NOT worth even the $1.49 that I just paid.

Not working

This app worked fine until a few weeks ago. I think it needs to be updated to be compatible with latest IOS?

Stopped working

Was working perfectly on my iPhone 6 and it was a great app for the price. But not it just shuts down as soon as it opens. I’ve tried reinstalling the app and can’t seem to contact the developer to get support

Won’t launch

Can’t open the app. Crashes each time to a black screen then I’m back at my home screen.

Response from developer

Sorry - I’ve been travelling over seas for a while and have just seen this. I’m looking into the issue right now and will get an update out as soon as possible. Apologies for the inconvenience caused.

Fantastic

This app was brilliant until it started crashing. It just won’t stay open. Please fix this ASAP.

Diesel missing

Great app when all petrol stations are there. I use unleaded and diesel. Stations don’t always show for diesel. Not sure why. I have to use another app to get diesel prices!
Your ‘app support’ link doesn’t allow people to contact you- I’d prefer to contact directly rather than through a review.

Response from developer

Ooo good spot. Fuelwatch has added a fuel type called 'Brand diesel' as-well as the original Diesel. Update submitted and will be there in a few days. Thanks.

Most useful app I have. Saves me money

Great App. I use it every time I fill up my car and it saves me money. Tells me where the closest petrol stations are and there price. Also tells the price of tomorrow petrol. Recommend.
