Hi there! I see you're having trouble with the GasBuddy app not displaying gas prices. Let's dig into this so we can get you the current prices as smoothly as possible.

First, can you tell me if the app is showing gas stations on the map, but just no prices? Or are there no stations showing up at all? Also, have you tried any steps so far like changing fuel types or updating the app?

Meanwhile, here’s a straightforward troubleshooting path:

1. Toggle fuel type: Sometimes, the price list doesn’t load properly—try switching from "Regular gas" to another fuel type (like "Diesel" or "Premium"), then switch back to "Regular gas." This simple toggle can refresh the prices and fix temporary glitches.

2. Update the app: Make sure you have the latest version of GasBuddy installed. You can update it through your device’s app store or the website. An outdated app might not fetch current price data correctly.

3. Check your internet connection: Since the app relies on online data, ensure your internet connection is stable.

4. Clear cache/cookies: If you're using a browser-based app or WebView, try clearing your browser cache or the app's data cache if applicable.

5. Try reporting a price: If prices are missing entirely, you can tap “Report Price” on a station to enter the current gas prices. This helps keep the database updated for everyone.

If these steps don’t bring any prices back, there could be a temporary backend issue or regional gaps in price reporting.

Could you try toggling the fuel type first and let me know if that helps? I’m here to guide you through further steps!

Are you using the GasBuddy app or the website on your Windows device?
