Did the owner of the app..

[sjjubb1989]

I'm disappointed that the app doesn't have any subscription anymore. It'd be nice if the owner of the app could just release a new version with one line of code refactored so Apple is happy.

I am building my own version of Fuelly right now that will eventually be on the app store, but I'm stuck at coming up with a name.

I will be supporting cloud backup, but you have to pay a monthly or annual subscription (cloud hosting and apps aren't free to host), though it will be a small amount. On your device, I will allow premium features that only uses your local storage and does not sync with my backend services.

If the owner of this app does somehow come back from his hiatus, I would very much prefer to use your good app instead of reinventing the wheel and deal with Apple's software developer bureaucracy, but I am a software developer and it's nothing more than a minor inconvenience.

I love this app and it is sad to see that it is unmaintained. I obsessively have kept track of my fuel costs with this app since before it bought (Gas Cubby?).

I had recently sent them a query through the feedback option within the app and just got he following response.

Hi Debarka,

Thank you for contacting us and apologies for the delay in response.

There is currently an error with purchasing subscriptions. We will have it sorted out very soon.

Kind regards,

I hope so! I would much rather pay $5 a year than spend two weeks developing my own app & setting up the infrastructure.

Thanks Debarka!

I too had troubles renewing my app on May 1st when it expired - tried everything should have looked on the forum

I deleted app thinking maybe an issue - reinstall and login again as my account was still backed up online -

Once I deleted app - its no where to be found - and looking at "not on my phone apps" - it says

"Purchase of this item is not Currently available

This item is being modified. Please try again later"

Now I have nothing to track on phone with 10 yrs history....

Crap....

That's really bad. I did hear on some podcasts recently that Apple would be removing apps that haven't been updated in a while.

I suppose you may be able to use the Fuelly website on your browser. It should have all your data. Inconvenient on a phone, I know. Or if you have access to an Android device, you can use the aCar app which uses the Fuelly backend and is still working.

I just got a new iPhone 13, and went to use my Fuelly app. It would not download and I got a message saying that Fuelly is no longer available in the App Store. I haven’t found anywhere to contact the administrator of the app there doesn’t seem to be any “contact us”

HELP!

We have been using this app for many years and found it very helpful. If it needs to be updated somehow to get it back on the App Store, let’s get it done.

What will it take to get the app back?

sjjubb1989, I, for one, would welcome your efforts. The Fuelly brick wall should be taken down like the Berlin Wall was!

Be sure to provide for import of data from csv and other forms. I'd be happy to buy an app, but I'm not interested in subscriptions; I can do my own backups, but to each his own. Cross platform use would also be critical.
