Mobile application: Development of Fuel Station Search

Gracel N. Geroy
Volume 4 July 2023

This research can greatly help most motorists find the cheapest fuel station within an area. It was developed so that users can view the price of the fuel station in the area along with the fuel station's details, such as the station's name, location on the map, and the distance from the site. Using geographical referencing, the app helps save cash, fuel economy, and time in looking for the nearest fuel refilling station. This application requires internet access, and thus there is a disadvantage of internet failure. The main aim of developing this application is to reduce the time to a great extent that is consumed in searching for the nearest and cheapest fuel station. This study used a descriptive design. Data were gathered through interviews and standard questionnaires using purposive sampling. McCall’s Software Evaluation was used for the expert's evaluation, and ISO/IEC25010 Software Characteristics for the respondents. Rapid Application Development was used in Software Development Life Cycle. As a result, both experts and respondents agreed that system was operational, always available, accessible, and responsive anytime by giving the grand mean both equal to 4.77 and 4.77. Various software development tools, such as the Javascript framework, Angular 7 CLI, and Firebase real-time database, were used. The final software product was given to motorists and travelers in Negros Occidental.
