  • New mobile gas prices app uses OPIS prices fed by PriceAdvantage

    There’s a new mobile gas prices app available for the iPhone and Android, and this time the prices are not reported by drivers but by the trusted source of OPIS. It’s the MapQuest Gas Prices app available here, and it automatically detects the location of the phone to display nearby retail fuel locations. It also allows the user to enter an address to find gas prices near there, and it can store favorites for quick reference to someone’s most commonly frequented fueling stations.

    With the PriceAdvantage OPIS integration, now fuel managers can be sure their latest fuel price information is displayed on the app, and their retail fuel prices are 100% accurate. After price changes are complete, PriceAdvantage sends the newest prices to OPIS, who then posts the price on MapQuest, AAA, Garmin and other sites.

    I use the new MapQuest Gas Prices app on my Droid and I find the user interface to be simple to use and extremely accurate.
