Could use a feature that allows user inputted prices. ### 3/5 — Costco *2025-06-28, version 2.5.11* Costco gas is not included in the results. It’s almost always the least expensive option available, so why is it not displayed? ### 3/5 — Missing Sam’s and HEB gas prices *2025-05-17, version 2.5.11* The app doesn’t have crucial gas prices that I look for. It’s missing Sam’s Club and HEB. ### 2/5 — Out of date *2025-04-23, version 2.5.11* Gas prices are two days old at best. ### 1/5 — Works occasionally *2025-04-16, version 2.5.11* Too often it is wrong ### 1/5 — Needs to update every day *2025-04-11, version 2.5.11* It doesn’t update constantly and is frustrating when I rely on the app to look for the cheapest option of gas and the gas station isn’t there anymore ### 1/5 — Doesn’t even work *2025-03-21, version 2.5.11* The app is completely frozen. White screen and unable to do anything. ### 1/5 — Trash *2025-03-13, version 2.5.11* Nothing works anymore, can’t press anything. ### 1/5 — Slow Reporting *2025-02-22, version 2.5.10* Way behind in its reporting of current gas prices. ### 1/5 — No longer reliable *2025-01-10, version 2.5.10* As others have noted the prices shown have not been updated for two weeks then suddenly the prices shown are less than five days old before reverting back to two weeks. I will seek out a better app. ### 1/5 — WTHeck *2024-12-29, version 2.5.10* The prices have not changed in 12 days. Any where I look they are all 11 or 12 days. ### 1/5 — Saved gas stations *2024-12-23, version 2.5.10* It’s not saving anything! You go through the process only to see nothing has been saved. Please fix otherwise this is useless and GasBuddy will get the business. ### 2/5 — Favorites List doesn’t save *2024-12-17, version 2.5.10* When saving stations on your favorites list the heart goes red but the stations don’t save on the list. Have to scroll through every time to check the local stations prices instead of looking at the favorites list. ### 2/5 — Fix favorites *2024-12-12, version 2.5.10* It grabs prices correctly. But the other features are problem. Please fix favorites. ### 3/5 — Lost my favorites *2024-12-03, version 2.5.10* We’ve used Gas Guru for quite some time and loved it. Recently for some reason all of my “favorites” disappeared and the app will not let me save favorites. You can tap the ❤️ but it wont list the location in favorites. Email to developers is unanswered and it still doesn’t work right. ### 3/5 — What happened? *2024-11-23, version 2.5.10* This is a great app for finding the best prices on gas. Well, it was. I used to be able to store my favorite stations, and refer to them with a tap. Now, the app won’t save them in the Favorites section. This has been an ongoing issue that still hasn’t been resolved. Please fix, and, you’ll get a 4th, or, possibly, 5th Star. ### 2/5 — Developer Does Not Respond To Problems *2024-10-16, version 2.5.10* I loved this app until the “save to favorites” function stopped working. I have sent numerous messages to them that this function no longer works on iPhone even though it did before the last update. After 25 sent messages they still have not replied or corrected the problem. ### 3/5 — Nice app but, … *2024-10-08, version 2.5.10* After upgrading to iOS 18,the favorites just shows a default screen. I know I have some stations favorited. ### 4/5 — Love this app. Used to save favorites. *2024-09-27* I’ve used this app for years and it has come in handy. It used to save my favorites back has recently dumped all of them and won’t save them. It’ll save once, not come up in the favorites tab, and be deleted the next time I open the app. I tried to use the send feedback option in the app and it says I need to set up my email but doesn’t give me a place to set it up. If those bugs get fixed, it’ll be a 5 star app. ### 2/5 — Not accurate *2024-09-26, version 2.5.10* 90% of the time, the gas prices aren’t accurate. Defeats the purpose of using this app. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Timely information *2025-09-17, version 2.5.12* I usually like this app. But it’s sometimes 3-4 days old sometimes on gas prices. But today’s gas prices are 7 days old. How do you determine where you want to purchase gas on information that’s over a week old. I’m about ready to dump this app! ### 1/5 — No Favorites *2025-08-30, version 2.5.12* Advertises you can save Favorite Gas Stations. But does not offer this in the app. No way to save favorites. Will delete this app. ### 1/5 — CISTCO Gas stations. *2025-08-05, version 2.5.11* All COSTCO gas stations are now not listed under “All” stations from my app. Why? ### 1/5 — Gas prices are old *2025-07-08, version 2.5.11* Gas prices are usually old ### 1/5 — Newer Costco gas here x 2 yrs but doesn’t show up in app. *2025-07-05, version 2.5.11* Beginning to wonder if this app was developed and then not updated EVER. We have a Costco nearby that is approximately 2 yrs old, but still doesn’t show up with gas prices despite requests over the past year to please include it. Non-responsive support is about to cause me to delete this app. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on iPhone *2025-07-01, version 2.5.11* Only black screen. ### 1/5 — Gas Guru is broken *2025-06-20, version 2.5.11* Gas Guru can be opened but it has no content. I have successfully used it many times before. Why is it still listed in the App Store? ### 1/5 — I Look Like A Dork *2025-06-03, version 2.5.11* App does absolutely nothing, it’s just a black screen and it has me pressing my finger all over my phone just to try and get it to respond. I’m calling the cops. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-05-19, version 2.5.11* The app downloads but no amount of clicking anywhere opens anything. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t even work *2025-05-04, version 2.5.11* Can’t click anything, just black screen. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Simple, Reliable, Perfect App *2024-09-07* I’ve been using Gas Guru for at least four years now. I don’t know why anybody gives it less than five stars. I guess people are expecting more features from an app? The features are simple but robust. It simply lists the current gas prices (for the gas you use) for all the gas stations near you, either on a map or a filterable table. That’s it. That’s all I need. And it doesn’t dish up annoying advertisements. ### 5/5 — Watch out Gas Buddy *2024-06-27, version 2.5.10* Always update Gas Guru. Exxon on Albermarle Rd near 51 in CLT opened June 2022 never allowed Diesel to update until this month. Gas Guru is always on the ball.👍👍👍👍👍 ### 5/5 — Apple Car Play *2023-10-13, version 2.5.9* Can you get this approved to work on Car Play? ### 5/5 — This app helps me fined best price in town. *2022-03-12* I like this app not to complicate to use like other apps. Simple and don’t need to add credit cards or earn points for nothing it’s just a basic app to find best prices in town or any town/city I select. I can switch from different gas grade to diesel, I can switch from list to map view. I travel a lot and I can start looking at next town for best prices along my way. I can pan around and zoom in. ### 5/5 — People complain the most when it’s free…. *2022-03-11* I LOVE this app! It has always worked for me. I travel my very large state from corner to corner and everything in between via main arteries to unmarked logging ’roads’ weekly. I’ve been using this app to find gas (and the occasional mechanic) during my travels for the past 2-3 years and it’s never failed me. I’m reading a lot of reviews saying it’s lacking this or that. If it had this or that, it probably wouldn’t be free anymore. The app does exactly as it states so I don’t see how anyone can be intellectually honest and grade it below 5 stars. There are gas apps out there that do exactly what the complainers want but they aren’t free. Again, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, app does what it states. ### 5/5 — Good *2020-04-07, version 2.5.0* I personally like it. I’ve had good luck with it. I find that on occasion one or two prices may be off. Usually it’s because the gas station hasn’t reported the new price. Sometime it’s a Conveniace store that hasn’t had a chance to report the change immediately because they’re busy. Most of the time they’re right on. It’s much better than riding to the different stations in your area. ### 5/5 — Saves u Time and $$$ *2018-01-24* I live in a suburb of Milwaukee and this app is the most reliable by far. Rather than rely on motivating busy drivers to enter accurate prices, this system relies on station operators to call in their price daily. If they forget, then their station is left out of the results which costs them customers and money ... so most stations enter accurate prices! It truly is worth your while to try this app and see how it works in your area. ### 5/5 — So far its like magic *2017-02-15, version 1.8* The magical part being, the prices don't seem to be crowdsourced!! I think i have a little clue how that trick might work but hey! I won't tell anyone as long as I have this one basic feature that the other couldn't give me!! A dynamic gps based map interface. Thank God. I would like to contribute to the community tho but, whatever. I guess well leave the crowdsourcing to them others, and the usability to gas guru ### 5/5 — Great App *2017-01-27, version 1.8* I've been using this app for about two months now and I think it's great! The prices have been updated reasonably often and, so far, have matched up to actually current rates. The only thing I'd change is that there's no option to save your preferences, like distance vs price listing order, which isn't a big enough deal to drop a star point. It's a very useful and reliable app. ### 5/5 — Great easy to use app *2017-01-21* Are used to use fuel finder but that became an outdated. So I look for a new app. I tried gas buddy but it seem little over-the-top for what I needed. I tried this app and it's very simple to use give me exactly what I needed it is for the most part very accurate as it gets and bases this pricing directly from the oil industry. I also like the fact uses location services only while using the app unlike gas buddy which uses location services all the time which can be a drain on the battery. Get this app, you won't be disappointed. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
