Our New Home Screen: Simple to Use. Easy to Win. Thanks to You.

|

I have the privilege of unveiling our latest product enhancements to you today and shedding some light on where we are taking this product in the future. First, I want to say thank you to my fellow GasBuddies. We would not be able to build these amazing products without you — and we’d all be stuck overpaying for gas!

In the latest version of the app, you’ll notice an improved look when you first open it up: The Home Screen. We’ve made it easier for you to navigate to your favorite features in the app and get the information you want quickly.

  • Find Gas Near You – This is the core of GasBuddy and the first thing you’ll see. At a glance, you’ll know the cheapest gas near you and where the best deals are before you begin your journey to savings.
  • My Favorites – You asked for them to be more prominent and we listened!  Now you can access your favorite gas stations directly from the home screen. They’re just a tap away.
  • Up for the Challenge – We love giving away free gas. With the new home screen, you can see the most important Challenge near you. Get those points!
  • Speaking of Free Gas – Now you can enter the daily prize draw directly from the home screen making it easier for you to redeem your points for a chance to win FREE GAS!

This home screen is for YOU. Our goal and promise is that future updates will bring you even more personalization. You can expect to see things appear on your home screen based on the features you find most useful.

Your feedback has inspired us to illustrate just how important your contributions are to the GasBuddy community and we plan to display your impact back to you on the home screen. We think you’ll be truly amazed at how much you help others. It is my sincere hope that you enjoy this new feature and we would love to hear your feedback. You can reach us on this blog or email us at [email protected].

Happy pumping and thanks for joining GasBuddy on the road ahead!

GasBuddy Canada

For budget-minded drivers, GasBuddy is the travel and navigation app that is used by more North American drivers to save money on gas than any other. Unlike fuel retailer apps, as well as newer apps focused on fuel savings, GasBuddy covers 150,000+ gas stations in North America, giving drivers 27 ways to save on fuel. That’s why GasBuddy has been downloaded nearly 90 million times – more than any other travel and navigation app focused on gas savings.
