  1. @robspook thanks for the feedback. Gas Buddy uses crowd sourced prices... So they are liable to error. A better source might be worth more?
  2. @robspook Roger that. What if it was $0.99 to turn on the engine hour option within the app?
  3. @robspook So the hours are in addition to the odometer reading? Interesting, I think this will be coming in a future update...
  4. New search box in the next Car Care update lets you search by day of the week. yfrog.com/o0mxnovj
  5. Long overdue, but coming in the next update: view only fuel, only service, or all entries. yfrog.com/nup9rfmj
  6. @KeithJBarber The app cannot do anything on the iOS device after 9 minutes, and that includes GPS updates... yet people are seeing it. Weird
  7. @KeithJBarber I saw... I am working on the next update that will give more Pit Stop GPS options, including disabling GPS. Strange behavior.
  8. @KeithJBarber hmm... shouldn't be happening, but perhaps. Just maintenance, not fuel?
  9. Car Care tutorial videos & GPS pit stops - eepurl.com/lYIVj
  10. Tell *us* how Car Care should tell *you* about the cheapest priced nearby fuel: bit.ly/LbZ55r
  11. @abrimhalldad Great! Do you travel in the US, or elsewhere in the world?
  12. @KeithJBarber Thanks man. I'm working on the next update that will allow GPS to be totally turned off, too
  13. @KeithJBarber Trying to suggest the next course of action... shot in the dark, but what about restart your iPhone?
  14. @KeithJBarber Hm... that's really weird. The app specifically has no ability to keep the GPS going... going to keep investigating.
  15. @KeithJBarber how long after the fill was that? The gps will run up to 9 min after in a low power mode (Will add no GPS option next update)
  16. @AndresBeta84 And since Colombia and the rest of Latin America uses it, let's do it :) Do any other apps support km/gal ?
  17. @AndresBeta84 Email carcare at karlbecker dot com and let's talk about a Spanish translation - I'd love that!
  18. @KeithJBarber No kidding! Can you tell me if it works right away, or you need to Reset Location Warnings in Settings > General > Reset ?
  19. @AndresBeta84 This is the first time I've heard of somebody wanting km/gal :) Where do you use it? How will you use it? Certainly could...
  20. @akhil1980 That will reset what Car Care is allowed to do, and also eliminate any other apps that may be taking too much GPS data
