Go To The USA To Fill Up Gas? Use Gas Runner For iPhone

Do you fill your gas tank in the USA, finding that it can be cheaper to fill up down south than in Canada? If so, Gas Runner for iPhone can be a great resource!

In the never ending battle of rising gas prices, some savvy Canadians have jumped the border to fill up their tanks. But before deciding to drive south, it’s good to know how much you’ll actually be saving.

Gas Runner, developed by a local Vancouverite, is a great resource app for those who buy gas south of the border. The app enables users to input the American pump price in dollars/gallon and Gas Runner calculates the equivalent Canadian cents/litre.

Since Gas Runner deals with multiple currencies, the current exchange rate is updated via the web. However if you have no Internet connection, you may manually input the exchange rate.

If you frequently head south for gas, Gas Runner could be helpful.

Gas Runner is available on the App Store for $0.99.

Nifty idea. The only glitch I see is that using this app in the States would incur roaming data charges for the average user.

It would only be like 1 or 2 cents per use if you already have a regular data plan… Maybe not even that much 😛 Still worth it for comparing the costs

There is an option to enter the exchange rate manually on the settings page within the app. You could always set it before you go over the line if it was a concern. Otherwise you can select your carrier in the settings on the phone. If you’re close to the border you can often get your local provider even when you’re on the other side PF the line.

Well the problem is if you turn on roaming just for this app, all your other apps like mail etc will try to update also when the data is activated so it could be potentially cost a lot more…

Don’t understand why such a simple program has to cost money? All you have to do to calculate the price difference is to check the rate before you cross the border, which can be done with many free apps, and then US$xRate/3.874=CAD$ per liter. Done!

Yup this works. You can even shorten it to:
convert 3.29 usd/gallon to cad/l

Google calculator can replace a ton of apps out there… But who wants to Google something when an app looks so much easier to use!

Dude, it’s 99 cents! People pay more than that for tomatoes in Farmville. And the app just works.
