Charts are not calculating correctly
This was easy to set up and it seems to be accurately monitoring my oil level. The only issue I’m having is that the dashboard that shows how many days before 1/4 or 1/8 of a tank does not calculate correctly since it’s using an hourly rate instead of a daily rate. Overall I’m pretty happy so far.
Needs outdoor temperature monitoring
Great product and easy to install. Love the metrics but would be absolutely amazing if the graph simply added outdoor temperature to understand increased usage to temp metrics.
GAME CHANGER
My mom became an expert at guesstimating when we needed oil. When she passed away, I ran out 2x and had to have to boiler bled which costs more money. I found this Smart Gauge and that hasn’t happened since. I also haven’t been brand loyal to one company. I love being able to choose my oil company based on the best price available. My usual company’s price is usually $40-50 higher than the lowest price. I have 2 improvements for the update. The option to share gauge info or have the option of more than one email on an account. Also, the option to save history of purchases and successful deliveries within the app. I would like to the ability to look back at my history.

Blind Accessibility
First, I love this product, being blind it gives me a way to keep track of the oil level of the tank. Second, it also keeps track of the battery level so when the battery level is low, you know it's time to replace the batteries.
One thing I wish they would update on the app is the login, would be nice to be able to just use facial recognition, or touch ID to get into the app quickly instead of going into passwords, verifying and then tapping on the proper password for the app login would be nice if we could get that everything in place just needs to be done.
Otherwise, thank you for this product. Makes my life a whole lot simpler and a whole lot more stress-free.

App no longer works
Can log into their website but this app is toast.
Constantly logged out
If you are following modern security practices, you have a unique password for every site/service stored in a password wallet.
You’ll feel the pain with this app as whenever you need it, you are greeted with “authentication error, please login again”
Why can’t this app stay logged in? The majority of applications on iPhone stay authenticated for YEARS.

Unreliable
I have horizontal 275 tank. On 9-1 I had 100 gallons oil added on top of 130 already in the tank. First three days reading didn’t change. 4th day it increased to 150. After three weeks today 9-19 it has been fluctuating between 135 and 190 few times a day for last three days. I have been getting notifications for “half tank” or “looks like you got oil delivered”. I spoke with company they said this is the limitation of sensor for flat tank at higher levels but box and setup pamphlet doesn’t say it.
Disappointed because it’s a very expensive gauge.

OK oil gauge does not work
Try setting it follow the directions several times I’m at the point to shoot myself with it. It just doesn’t want to read the tag. It always says no tag sensor no tank I don’t know what’s wrong probably going to call up and speak to somebody.
Never got it to link up.
I tried the directions, on off and other methods. Nope. It saw my WiFi but failed every attempt to connect.
Good App but Needs Easy Seller Reviewability
I was estatic when they added push notifications. It really increased the quality-of-life when using the app.
I’ve tried to review sellers before after trying some sellers a couple of times and I cannot find a way within the app to do so. I imagine it must be done by logging into Fuelsnap’s website which is inconvenient when you have the app in your hand all the time.
Feature Request:
Add a very minimal transaction history button that shows on the “Oil Prices/Buy Oil” page of the app. If you click said button, you see a summary of your past orders by date, seller name, total gallons ordered, price per gallon and total transaction cost. There can be a review button on this area to ensure that reviewers have indeed bought from the seller in question before leaving a review.

Reliability
The device connects to my Wi-Fi just fine but keeps dropping offline. It is the only device out of 47 connected to my Wi-Fi that does that, so you can judge for yourself.
A smart decision
Buying and installing the smart oil gauge was a great decision. I love to be able to monitor my tank with the app and getting alerts when I’m running low. Best part is how easy is to order oil via the app, shopping for the best price available in my area. Yes, the app interface could be nicer and have a better user interface, but it works. It is interesting for me to learn how much oil I consume and changing that with small adjustments to the thermostat target temperature.

great product but app could use some additional features to be really useful
It’s great to be able to check latest usage and be notified when to order oil. However without the ability to look at prior months/weeks or years you are not able to determine if your usage is going up or down over time, which would be very helpful.
Error when trying to add via app
Keep getting “there was an error getting configuration data” during installation
Easy install
5 min to install and 5 min to set it up. Love the concept and tank level email notifications so I can order more without running out. The app is a little clunky and could use an update to improve functionality, similar to other review comments. Usage tracking, graph functions, on screen notifications, etc.

Time
It would be nice if I can change the time I don’t understand army time
Awesome app
Been using this for two weeks I got a replenishment of oil but the reading caps out at 234 even though I have a 275 gallon tank. What’s up with that? I was raising cane with my oil delivery guy saying he short changed me. Now I am apologizing for this device bad reading. Taking off two stars for this

App
Works great most of the time. At time wont let me log into the app. Wish it would let you look at the previous day
Installed mine a few years ago
I was able to find this system a while back. It was very easy to install and setup. Took no longer then 10 minutes. Since then they have been updating the app with features that have been very helpful. Being someone from the south, now in the NE, I was terrified of heating bills. This system allows me to see how much fuel I’m using on a daily basis. It has allowed me to set my thermostat to a comfortable level while saving fuel.

Love it!
I’ve ran out of oil before and I don’t want to do that again! This product is amazing. Just remember to set up your phone/email notifications. A nice feature would be a banner notification from the app.
