(a) I'm about to find out (b) at least some casual tire-kicking shows that their mobile website is just as ragingly dumb as the app is, so that actually makes me feel a little better - it's not that the app itself is stupid, it's that their dev team is
Genuinely curious, since I've never heard of the app until this very moment - do you actually find that you save a noticeable amount on gas? I tend to notice that prices are incredibly similar from station to station in whatever general metro area I'm in, to the point where it almost doesn't make a difference which station I go to. Has it actually shown a benefit wrt driving out of your way as opposed to stopping at the most convenient spot on your commute?
Reasonable people are going to differ about what "noticeable" means, and it will further differ based on the size of the tank in your vehicle, since a $0.04 difference times 8 gallons is not going to be the same as times 75 gallons
But, to answer your question, yes: I just checked and the spread seems to be $5.19 to $4.19 here. But to circle back to your original premise it's quite possible that even $15-ish is not worth the glucose/time spent interacting with this objectively terrible app and then driving to some likely inconvenient station
