From time to time it is essential that we load gasoline in our vehicles. The best way to find the cheapest gas stations nearby is with Waze ; a very useful app
Find nearest and cheapest gas stations with Waze
The first thing we will have to do is download Waze from the Play Store by following this link or by opening the app and searching. Once downloaded, we proceed to open it and click on Where? We select the gas station icon, which would be the one in the middle..
Next, we will see the map with the locations of the gas stations, the distance between it and us, along with the prices and the last time it was updated. We can click on a specific list to know the prices of each fuel and when it was updated.
How to customize settings in Waze
A very important advantage that Waze has is that we can customize it, so we are going to open the application, once it is open we are going to click on My Waze and then click on the Settings icon that is shaped like a gear and is located at the top left..
Here we are going to choose Gas Stations in Driving Preferences. In this section we can configure the type of preferred fuel and the brand; we can also order the stations by distance, price or brand.
How Waze works
Waze offers us real-time traffic updates, route guidance, road obstructions, closures, traffic controls and much more information. Everything so that we can reach the nearest service station in the shortest possible time. It is an app that has more than 140 million users..
Also, depending on where we lived, the app may not update as often as in other areas. The price of gasoline may be old, so we will have to take this information as a kind of guide and not as certain, at least in some cases.
However, it is still an extremely useful application that allows us to find a nearby service station, it even allows us to evaluate which stations have constantly lower prices. We can also see their opening hours and what kind of extra services they have, something very important when we are traveling or in a city we don't know.
