Petrol Australia release notes

Your car, front and centre.

• Rego Reminders — Add your registration expiry once and we'll nudge you two weeks out, a week out, on the day, and once more if it slips past. Set it and forget it, for a whole year.
• My Vehicle — Your car now has a face on your Profile: custom artwork, your plate, and a ring that quietly counts down to renewal.
• Make & Model — Picking your car is a proper picker now, not two blank boxes. Make, model and year land where they should, and your nickname fills itself in.
• Vehicles, Redesigned — The Vehicles screen leads with your preferred car in the same artwork and countdown as your Profile, with the rest below it and Add always within reach.
• Report a Station — Wrong price? Wrong opening hours? Tap Report on any station and tell us. Real drivers keep the map honest.
• Route From a Station — Found a good servo? Start a trip straight from it, origin pre-filled, fuel stop already chosen. Round trips - there and back - plan properly too.
• More Station Details — Opening hours and AdBlue now cover more of the independents, and stray map pins get quarantined before they reach your results.
• Bug Fixes & Polish — Keyboards behaving, sheets sitting still, prices staying put. The unglamorous half of the work.

Know your car. Know your price.

Know when to fill. Log what you paid.

• Fuel Log — Tap the bowser in the bottom menu bar (or on any station) to log a fill-up. Amount, litres, price - done in seconds. Your fuel stops land in Trip History alongside planned routes.
• Station Insights — Open any station and see where it ranks in your state, and how today's price sits against its recent range.
• Best Day to Buy — Built from historic prices so you can see which day of the week usually runs cheapest. Some stations will surprise you, their best day isn't the same as the servo down the road.
• Profile & Onboarding — A clearer home for members - vehicles, quick actions, and year-to-date fuel stats. Guests and non-members get redesigned flows too, plus a fresher onboarding tour.
• Bug Fixes & Polish — Crashes caught, sheets steadied, a few rough edges sanded down. Quiet work. Steady gains.

Fill smarter. Drive further.

Fuel stops, now on the big screen.

• Apple CarPlay — Your nearest and cheapest servos, real prices and member discounts included, right on the dash. Plug in and drive.
• Price Alerts — Set a target price on any station and we'll let you know the moment it drops below it. Just tap the bell on a station to arm it.
• Station Details, Upgraded — Phone numbers, opening hours, and AdBlue availability now shown for thousands of stations across Australia.
• Northern Territory — Live fuel prices have reached the Top End. That's every state and territory covered.
• Bug Fixes & Polish — Small fixes. Smoother experience. Better reliability. The kind of update you don't notice until it's missing.

Every state. Every territory. Every cent counted.

Know before you go.

• Route Planning — Enter your destination, we'll find the cheapest servo on the way. Cost and kilometers estimated before you leave home. Find it in the new Route tab.
• Route Management & Trip History — Manage your trips and review completed journeys. Both available in Profile.
• Bug Fixes & Polish — Crashes caught, jitters calmed, a few things quietly put in their place. You probably won't notice - that's the point.

Go forth and save.

Less setup. More saving.

• A Guided Sign-up — Creating an account is now a calm, step-by-step flow instead of one long form: your details, username, state, and the fuel you use. The map feels like yours from the first launch.
• Screens That Behave — Sign-in and sign-up now play nicely with the keyboard. No awkward scrolling, no hidden buttons.
• Bug Fixes & Polish — The usual quiet work that makes everything feel that little bit tighter.

The map just got cheaper. More clubs. More states.

• More Discount Programs — We've expanded beyond SA. Members across NSW, WA, QLD, and TAS can now add their club discounts in Profile → Preferences → Discounts and see what they actually pay — across the map, nearby list, and station details. More states and clubs coming soon.
• Profile, Tidied Up — We split Profile into two focused sections: Preferences for everything about how you use the app, and System for the under-the-hood stuff. Same settings, easier to find.
• Cheapest In View — Stop trying to find the cheapest station visually. A subtle banner now floats at the top of the map showing the cheapest station currently on screen. As you pan around, it updates live. Tap it to open the station details.
• Sign-up Polish — The sign-in and sign-up flows got a proper overhaul — email verification, a cleaner forgot-password journey, and a few guardrails to keep usernames civil.
• Bug Fixes & Polish — The usual quiet work that makes everything feel that little bit tighter.

Happy driving.

This one's a big one. Grab a coffee.

• Discounts — Add your membership discounts in Profile → Discounts and let us do the maths for you. See what you actually pay after savings across the map, nearby list, station details, compare view, and your home screen widget. More clubs and memberships coming soon.
• Bug Fixes & Polish — Behind the scenes we patched, tweaked, and fussed over the details until things felt just right.

Coffee Finished.

Statistically, nobody reads this. But since you're here — you're one of us now. Headline act: Widgets.

• Widgets — Glance at fuel prices right from your home screen. Show the cheapest station near your saved area, or pin a favourite station you visit most. Choose your mode in Profile → Widgets. Tap the widget and it opens that station directly.
• Push Notifications — Set a custom radius for fuel price alerts. Get notified when prices drop near your home, not just anywhere in your state.
• Preferred Fuel — Your fuel choice from Profile now sticks across the map, nearby list, and widgets — no need to reselect it every session.
• Share a Station — See a great price? Share the station details as an image straight from the station sheet — via Messages, Mail, or any sharing app.
• Tutorial — New to Petrol Australia? A quick walkthrough on first launch shows you the ropes.
• App Review — After a few sessions we may gently ask if you're enjoying the app. Rate us if you are — dismiss or snooze if not.
• Bug Fixes & Polish — Tracked down and squashed a number of pesky bugs, plus a handful of small UI tweaks to keep things feeling sharp.
