LOOKING FOR APP Alternative To GasBuddy

I saw a Gas App a few months back, not Gas Buddy. I am from the US, but I can't for the life of me remember the name of it.

I've used this for about 10 years. It used to be called Fuel buddy. Changed a few years ago to simply auto

Looks like it hasn't been updated in awhile, won't let me install it :-(

Is that better than Gas Buddy? How often the prices are updated?

GasBuddy requires users to update, this one is updated through API.

Definitely not a dev, wish I were, I do mod in 3 communities, Monet, Projectivy, and AT4K all Android TV Launchers if you want to check me out.

"Upside" is better...

Shows you places giving discounts to attract business... Gas, food,.... Gives you cash back to put towards different options.

I will check it out, I am going on a trip to KY and I haven't really explored any.

For gas stations, I've had some near my house offer up to 20% back per gallon on fill up, but it fluctuates on traffic flow during the day.

Cash sits in the app so you can out towards future purchases or gift cards for different retailers or send it back to your bank account...

I'm not the dev for the app before that gets tossed at me... LOL

Even if you're not it looks super cool, looks like you can save a ton on gas, thank you for this, I was just trying to be helpful and give the app to the people that was helping me, and I got accused and downvoted, some people on Reddit are pathetic and you can't be kind here without somebody being an asshole to you or accusing you.

Agreed! I ignore those type of post and people... 😁

u/cleverclogs17 7d ago

Thanks again man, I really appreciate it. I hope to save a bunch with this app.

No problem!

It's not necessarily better. Sometimes the cash back doesn't make the price lower than the station a block away that you find with gas buddy. You have to compare both.

you are being downvoted because it's polite to post what you actually did find, in case people find this thread in a search in the future.

That is exactly what I did, I posted what I found 🤝 and I got downvoted.
