Petty: Cheap Petrol Finder 7.4.1

Petty is a valuable tool for Australian drivers seeking to optimize their petrol purchases. By providing real-time data on petrol prices and trends, it assists users in unfamiliar areas or simply when monitoring nearby stations.

The app covers key regions including NSW, QLD, SA, WA, TAS, and the ACT, and distinguishes itself through the use of precise data sourced from state governments. This data is continuously updated to reflect the fluctuating prices at petrol stations nationwide.

Petty offers a suite of features designed to enhance the user experience:

• Integration with CarPlay for a seamless driving experience
• Customizable notifications based on user preferences or price thresholds
• Home screen widgets for quick access to nearby stations, individual station prices, and price trend graphs
• Filtering options by brand, petrol type, and location for tailored searches
• Comprehensive visibility into petrol prices across supported states
• Real-time average pricing and trends for up to 90 days in specified regions
• Future pricing information available for WA after 2:30 PM for the next day’s rates
• A favorite stations feature for easy access on the Dashboard
• Price comparison tools to determine potential savings based on tank size
• Siri Shortcuts that enhance accessibility while on the move
• A modern design devoid of advertisements, ensuring a distraction-free experience

It is noteworthy that the ACCC suggests that consumers can save substantial amounts—approximately $10 to $15 per 60-litre tank—by strategically timing their fuel purchases to align with the lowest priced retailers. Petty effectively aids drivers in accessing current pricing information to facilitate such informed decisions.

Although certain features require an optional subscription, many are accessible without one. Users should be aware of automatic renewal policies for subscriptions.

For those concerned about privacy, Petty is designed to protect user data by ensuring that sensitive information remains on the device and not transmitted externally.
