About this app

Fuel Map is a crowd-sourced database of petrol stations and fuel prices from all across Australia. All station information is added and edit by users like yourself. You can also add current fuel prices which are then shared with other users of Fuel Map.
Fuel Map also shows real-time fuel prices for WA, NSW, and QLD sourced from government resources.
Stations in WA show prices for both today and tomorrow! (Tomorrow's prices are available after 2:30pm)

Locations of petrol stations are shown on the map as a branded pin with the last known fuel price displayed above.

The slide-in site list makes it easy to find the cheapest petrol station near-by in seconds.

Fuel Map also comes with a handy fuel log so you can keep track of your fuel purchases, as well as your vehicle's fuel economy.

Ratings and reviews

Great way to find stations nearby and to keep track of fuel efficiency, which I love. Easy to enter in info every time you buy fuel so you don't have to worry about resetting the odometer. Only downside is that it relies on the community to update prices. There's no automated info. If the community is good about updating the prices in the area, then it's really helpful. It was most helpful in WA and near Darwin because people were much better about getting it up to date. In Melbourne, however, it wasn't as good since people don't update prices very often and even if they do, they don't update all the prices for all the different options. Wish there was some way to filter by most recent prices, so you know how likely the prices are to be accurate without having to click on every station. But all in all, a helpful app, particularly for road trips or if you're in an area where you don't frequently buy petrol an don't have a favorite spot.

Simple, intuitive and easy to use. Has some useful checks/tools to help correct/delete erroneous data input. Unfortunately, it lists a large number of unknown (scam?) fuel outlets. Needs some control/review of added sites to filter out all the non-existent/shonky listings.

Great app, heaps of potential. However, 1) needs a pro ad free version. 2) really needs an offline version; vast areas of WA have no reception and this app only works with active data and GPS, can't find petrol stations if no reception. 3) Needs to have prices updated automatically from central provider and not user input, app relies heavily on truth and honesty from users, what if a user adjusts the prices wrong on purpose? 4) My trip/ top-up needs to be made simpler, it's not usable right now.
