Add Gas Stations to Locations

How do you add a gas station to the locations list when fueling up.

A new station opened up near me and when I fuel up the gas station isn't listed to choose from. How can I get this station added? What database do you use?

Also, as a side note, there should be a "not shown" option where we can type the location.

A gas station I've used for years was not showing up for me. One day I was in its parking lot entering and editing the fuel up, I edited the location a couple times then it appeared. Don't know if the edit/save/edit did it or something else.

I just experienced that same problem today with my first fill up at our local Costco. My fuelly didn't recognize Costco as my gas station. I would like to add Costco because I do fill up my vehicles there regularly. Can anyone help vr4Legacy and Coach50?

Hm.. Not sure how I missed this thread. Sorry about that!

Currently we are limited to what Google is pushing to us as far as what's available in the Locations section of the app. We do plan to make this feature much more robust but are currently focusing efforts on getting Gas Cubby v3 out the door.

We also have tossed around the idea of allowing users to input stations and then those would become available to everyone to view/select from. But again, feature requests are currently being added to the To-Do list and wont be addressed until after Gas Cubby's update.

So does your list come from google maps?

If so, that helps, I'll find out how to get Google to add it.

Probably because you were poking the developer with a sharp stick.

To update everyone. I went to google maps and entered the address into google maps. From there I chose "add place". Within 5 minutes I got an email saying it was published and BAM it's in Fuelly now too!

The dealer that I purchased my vehicle at was in Gas Tracker, now it is not. It is on Google Maps, app and website. The Service that I had recorded in Gas Tracker in August now has empty Vehicle and Location data, I can pick and save a location but can not save a vehicle for this Service.
