### 4/5 — Currently drops out

*2026-06-01, version 4.2.0*

I love this App, but today it drops out just after opening. I record all my fuel so can’t do anything today 🙁

### 2/5 — Crashing

*2026-05-31, version 4.2.0*

Had the app a few years been good. Now it crashes constantly,making it unusable

### 3/5 — VIC prices seem out of date April’26

*2026-04-28, version 4.2.0*

Service Victoria, Servo Saver 
provides government data for Victoria.
…
It would be great if the App used this VIC government data, to be consistent 
with WA, NSW and QLD government data.
…
Otherwise for me not that useful in Victoria.

### 3/5 — Crowdsourced prices wrong and fake fuel stations

*2026-04-01, version 4.2.0*

The crowdsourced prices are wrong most of the time. Why not just use official data from the WA government fuel watch service? Also been noticing more fake fuel stations being listed that are house address with fake low prices. Need to remove all these fake prices and stations!

### 1/5 — Do not use

*2026-03-31, version 4.2.0*

Hundreds of fake non-existing locations listed on this app. Ridiculous. No one appears to respond to it if you report the fake locations either. Useless.

### 1/5 — Fake

*2026-03-21, version 4.2.0*

This app is full of fakes. Prices don’t update. Absolute waste of time.

### 1/5 — Terribly Innacurate

*2026-03-14, version 4.2.0*

Doesn’t receive updates to fuel prices for multiple days, you’re much better off using PetrolSpy, they update their prices every few minutes and you can win gift cards by helping update prices.

### 4/5 — Very useful app, however….

*2026-03-11*

Lately someone or some people have been adding hundreds of spurious invalid stations all over Brisbane/Ipswich and surrounds. 
The add site option needs to be removed or changed so it goes through a vetting process. The app used to be great but all these nonsense invalid sites that don’t get removed even when reported is making this app a total mess. 
Love the app but please deal with these nonsense invalid stations and prevent more being added without validation.

### 1/5 — Multiple service stations that don’t exist

*2026-03-10, version 4.2.0*

Multiple service stations that don’t exist get reported but they don’t get removed

### 1/5 — Unmaintained

*2026-03-08, version 4.2.0*

I reported a bunch of stations to delete that don't exist and just spam the entire area. This was 6+ months ago and they are still there. I even renamed them all to "Delete". Still there... I think I might just add thousands of fake stations until the developer has to deal with it.

### 1/5 — Clean your app up!

*2026-03-03, version 4.2.0*

So many fake service on here.

### 2/5 — Not kept up to date

*2025-12-17, version 4.2.0*

Not enough using it I think as never up to date. Chasing cheaper fuels only to find it’s more expensive or normal diesel was listed as the price of premium

### 1/5 — This App used to be great to check fuel prices!

*2025-11-19, version 4.2.0*

There are lot of incorrect service station names on the Central Coast, New South Wales now! Example: U Go at Lake Munmorah is still showing a Caltex Star Mart which that’s wrong right now, Also Coles Express Doyalson North & Gorokan is now renamed Reddy Express, so please fix your app and update your wrong names of the Central Coast, NSW petrol stations near our home! Metro Petroleum Doyalson and United Petroleum Budgewoi seems to be fine. From Ozkygrouch!

### 2/5 — Too many ghost service stations

*2025-10-09, version 4.2.0*

As the title says this app has shown fuel outlets in many residential streets especially in outback towns. There was no service station, never looked like there was one or ever will be!
Prime example, Longreach QLD.

### 2/5 — Not good if you use LPG

*2025-09-29*

I got this app and another one specifically because I use an LPG car for work and getting LPG in my area is very difficult, however closer to Sydney is not so bad. The other night I returned from work and I knew my regular fill up place had an issue with their LPG pumps, and couldn’t sell it, but it still shows a price in the app. I went to a different store, and they had no LPG, but it still showed in the app as if they did. This happened another 3 times. I was down to a range of 14km and if the next service station didn’t have LPG, I wouldn’t be able to go to work that night, and I’d have to leave my car in the service station until they were refilled. Luckily they had LPG. There should be a way for customers, or store owners to change the fuel to N/A if they are out or have broken pumps or whatever because it’s not like I can decide to run a more expensive or cheaper fuel if they’re out of my regular fuel.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2025-09-23, version 4.2.0*

Since shell/ coles express changed its name to Reddy it’s not working, it shows N/A

### 4/5 — Suggestion

*2025-06-15, version 4.2.0*

Would love options to write notes in each diary insert. I use this diary to track all fuel costs. Having options to note if towing etc which obviously increases fuel consumption

### 2/5 — Hardly readable

*2025-04-14, version 4.2.0*

Most stations are not showing a price. In towns the city gets buried under dozens of icons and if you try to zoom out for long distances everything disappears.

### 1/5 — Sad

*2025-04-10, version 4.2.0*

Govt sites do better.

### 3/5 — Scam fuel stations

*2025-02-27, version 4.2.0*

This app is great but they need to filter out the scam entries there are hundreds of scam service stations in Perth WA

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — App keeps crashing after 5 seconds

*2026-06-02, version 4.2.0*

Fix what you changed at last update or delete shall happen to what was a good app

### 1/5 — App is crashing on two platforms in IOS

*2026-06-02, version 4.2.0*

I don’t mind the app having problems they all can. But when reporting becomes vague and confusing this is what happens

### 1/5 — App crashing. No access.

*2026-06-01, version 4.2.0*

Hi guys. I’ve been using  this great app for years but now it’s crashing every time, less the 5 seconds after opening. 🤔

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-06-01, version 4.2.0*

Have been using this app to track multiple cars for a few years now and found it very easy to use and well laid out. Unfortunately today I tried to input some fuel consumption data and app just keeps shutting down. Is this going to be fixed or is this app done?

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2026-06-01, version 4.2.0*

Crashes on iPhone 12 Pro Max. If you can’t get it right on an iPhone Im guessing the developers are useless.

### 1/5 — App not working

*2026-06-01, version 4.2.0*

I have used this app for years now to track my km’s across 2 vehicles.  Today when I open the app it keeps closing down.  When I go into app support it showed that my account has been suspended and to contact support but the email address to send it to says it is not correct.
IS ANYONE ELSE
HAVING THIS TROUBLE?

### 1/5 — App keeps crashing

*2026-05-31, version 4.2.0*

App keeps crashing. Please fix it.

### 1/5 — Spam fake servos

*2026-04-20, version 4.2.0*

Normally a 5 star app, however the last few months hundreds of fake/spam servos have clogged up the map making it hard to find any actual servos

### 1/5 — Plenty of fake fuel places

*2026-04-17, version 4.2.0*

Looking at places to fuel up in western nsw red stations appear when you click on them app seizes. Deleted app.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2026-04-03, version 4.2.0*

Doesn’t load anything and just crashes, don’t bother downloading

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Petrol Spy 👍👍👍👍👍

*2024-05-28, version 4.2.0*

Best app ever. Saves me hard cash all the time. The only thing that could make it even possibly better is if it could be used via Apple CarPlay.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-10-22, version 4.2.0*

This works really well to check fuel prices as well as keeping track of fuel consumption on multiple vehicles.  The only thing that would improve it for me right now is if it could come up in Apple Car Play so my passenger could look for the best price while I was driving.

### 5/5 — Dropout

*2023-06-21, version 4.2.0*

Why does my app dropout after 10 seconds??

### 5/5 — Great App but needs a major bug fix

*2023-06-20, version 4.2.0*

The latest update version of this app has a crash bug. The app opens & as soon as the advert at the bottom of the screen loads the app crashes & shuts down. Nothing fixes this not even deleting the app & reinstalling it. Can the creators please fix this as it is an awesome money saver. 👍🏼

### 5/5 — Great app! Needs 1 more thing.

*2022-12-06, version 4.2.0*

It’s great that you can put if the servo has gas bottle swap or not, but I think there needs to be a place to put the swap price for the two common bottle sizes!
Thanks for the great work!

### 5/5 — Best at the

*2022-10-30*

In NSW fuel price check is now offloaded to FuelCheck so rarely use this feature, not sure about outside of the state.

However, I still find its Logbook feature extremely useful, it's simple, easy to use, does the job without any fancy cloud sync or subscription. What's more important is that it allows data export to CSV or transfer to another device. Happy to pay A$2.99 to remove ads to support the app, keep on going, it's my long term logbook app (I believe many other Aussies do the same). Thanks.

### 5/5 — Multi-National?

*2021-05-28*

I loved this app while I was travelling around Australia (something the Aus government has banned for me at the moment). So we are now travelling through Africa. 
I will start adding the fuel stations I go to while here ... to see what happens. Could this app become a true Overlanding app, covering all areas of the world??

### 5/5 — Fuel Map Australia

*2020-12-08*

Add a new station as you're new to Fuel Map this feature will become available in a few days

### 5/5 — Brilliant!!

*2020-06-14*

I really appreciate this ap. We’ve had to travel interstate regularly (please don’t judge, cancer and death supersede whatever nasty uneducated judgemental opinions you may have - thanks to those who didn’t even think it) Anyway, this is fantastic for travel as we’ve been able to determine where to stop for fuel. Also the servo’s details are usually provided so I’ve been able to ring them and confirm opening hours. Doesn’t help if people don’t update prices but you generally get a good idea. Great for local use too, saves the driving past several servos to hunt for the best price. Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — The equaliser for gouging petrol stations

*2020-05-23*

This app is well presented and has both a map style or list with the options of closest or cheapest.
It brings petrol pricing down to a level playing field when you can clearly see who’s charging what. 
I’ve always found this accurate and informative and uses Govt reported prices in states where available and crowd sourcing for others.  Keep up the great work
