Last updated
GasBuddy pairs crowd prices with personal logs. The map holds stations and prices for everyone. Your account holds vehicles, fill ups, and Pay history. The phone holds login and cache.
Same email means same garage. Exact cache names vary with Pay versus fuel only builds. Keep signal on at pumps so reports upload. If logs thin, check the login method first. A phone number versus email split is the usual duplicate empty profile cause. Screenshots of settings help when support asks for reproduction steps later.
Where GasBuddy stores this, by platform
/sdcard/Android/data/com.gasbuddy.app
Logs follow your GasBuddy account. Phone holds login, map cache, and drafts. Stations live in shared cloud. Match the login method exactly.
On My iPhone/GasBuddy
Fuel lives in the GasBuddy container plus cloud. Sign in to restore vehicles. Phone reinstall never touches shared prices or cloud logs.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move GasBuddy logs to a new phone?
Vehicles, logs, and Pay accounts follow your GasBuddy login. Sign in on the new phone with the same email. Stations live in the shared cloud map. Check the profile before wiping, since a second account shows empty and looks like loss.
Does GasBuddy back up fuel logs?
Yes, in the cloud account once logged. The phone holds login, map cache, and drafts. Price reports pending upload stay local until signal. Export mileage summaries for taxes, since the phone never holds the master log alone.
