I personally found it disgusting. ### 4/5 — Love the App, hate the adds *2026-08-23, version 6.0.7* Very handy app that I use every time I buy petrol… However sometimes these ads that pop up a hard to get rid of… ### 4/5 — Wish *2026-08-20, version 6.0.7* There were more stations to choose from ### 4/5 — Great help *2026-08-11, version 6.0.7* I travel a bit and did Petrol Spy helps me plan where to fill up at the best price. Having an address of the service station is good to put into my GPS. ### 5/5 — Convenient & Helpful *2026-08-06, version 6.0.7* Super Helpful whilst traveling around Australia - easy to use - helpful! ### 5/5 — Sam *2026-08-04, version 6.0.7* It’s really helpful ### 5/5 — Awesome App *2026-08-03, version 6.0.7* Fantastic app for finding the cheapest fuel prices in your surrounding area that you live or travel throughout Australia ### 5/5 — Great Money Saver *2026-08-03, version 6.0.7* I use my Petrol Spy constantly to view the best value for money and it has never let me down. ### 2/5 — Un-delete-able Apple Maps Data *2026-08-03, version 6.0.7* Love the app. But recently realised I had 3 gb of Apple Maps data - and I deleted Apple Map years ago. And the only app on my phone that uses Apple Maps: petrol spy. And it is near impossible to delete the Apple Maps data (a quick search online will tell you that the most reliable way is a full reset and back up your iPhone.. which is too much of a hassle to do on a regular basis) Would otherwise give this 5*, but it’s killing my limited iPhone capacity. Hope the developer is able to swap over to using google maps data instead 🙏 thank you very much. ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-08-03, version 6.0.7* Perfect for finding the best prices ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-08-02, version 6.0.7* I've been using it while we travelled in our van. Saved heaps of money. ### 5/5 — Top app *2026-08-02, version 6.0.7* One of my most useful apps. We use this app all the time - when remote for fuel locations plus of course to find the cheapest - it’s great. ### 5/5 — Very reliable *2026-08-01, version 6.0.7* I regularly use the app to show me current fuel prices and their locations. Also cheaper fuel suppliers are highlighted in red which makes it easier to quickly track cheaper fuel. Also the range of suburbs and geographical locations is enormous. I travel long distances and use the app to plan my trips. ### 4/5 — Adds *2026-07-31, version 6.0.7* Your adds now lasting too long & very annoying ### 4/5 — Pop up’s ads too large and hard to ignore *2026-07-31, version 6.0.7* As above ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Adds *2026-08-21, version 6.0.7* And to tap on and get your petrol page you get a scan come up. ### 1/5 — Used to be good *2026-08-13, version 6.0.7* Used to be good now ads I don’t want more ads or memberships ### 1/5 — Was good now useless *2026-08-03, version 6.0.7* This was a great app. I avoided reviewing this app in case there was a glitch. I even tried looking it up on google and AI. You can’t even add current prices and some info is 31 days old. I thought maybe had to create an account so tried that but still I cannot submit any price updates. Says failed each time I try. ### 1/5 — Mr *2026-08-02, version 6.0.7* The advertising is rank you can’t even clear it off to check pricing ### 1/5 — Rip off *2026-07-31, version 6.0.7* I paid for my subscription (year 2) and this morning I got ads when I logged on. What a rip off ### 1/5 — Hacking Lies *2026-07-28, version 6.0.7* While I have enjoyed using this app and commend it’s performance and design, I STRONGLY RESENT being told by fake alerts that that my iPhone is infected with a virus and needs to be scanned and cleaned immediately or it will fail. I recommend you look Very carefully at how you represent or your sponsors represent themselves. Scare tactics have a very negative effect in this modern day and age.

If it was a good simple app it would be easy to find ### 1/5 — PetrolSpy user *2026-06-28, version 6.0.7* We don’t know what towns when you use aboriginal names not good too confusing and annoying ### 1/5 — Ads won’t let you access Ap *2026-06-28, version 6.0.7* When you open this app and ad appears and you can’t close it because the X to close is hidden. I currently have an ad on mine that I can’t close so I will use the RAA ap instead. ### 1/5 — Asking *2026-06-16, version 6.0.7* Asking for a review ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Never travel without it *2026-08-22, version 6.0.7* Always available for quick & accurate price check.
