Fuelly Mobile Update
 

Today we updated the look and feel of Fuelly Mobile.

The new Fuelly Mobile was built with jQuery Mobile and it should provide a more native-app feel on the iPhone, Android, and BlackBerry. (If you're interested in the details, you can see a chart with the various devices/OS versions that jQuery Mobile serves here: Mobile Browser Support.)

Here's what the front page of Fuelly Mobile looks like on the iPhone once you're logged in:

And here's the same screen on an Android:

The biggest change is that everything is sized a little better for your fingers. Let us know how it works for you and if have problems with the new site. Thanks!

The entry boxes and font size are way too small now.



The first fill up with the new interface defaulted to a partial fill up which I know I didn't choose. I had to go in and edit the fill up through the full site to get an MPG for the fill.

I've always had a problem with the date being incorrect when I'm filling up at 2am my time (EST). I have to change that every time I add a fill up since it's always after midnight by a few hours.

What mobile device are you using?

Iphone 3G

ok, yeah, the font size for text entry is slightly smaller on the iPhone. Maybe we can bump that up, but I don't think it's that much smaller. If you'd like to compare the old and the new, try out m2.fuelly.com which has the old version running temporarily while we transition.

I'm not sure why partial would have been pre-selected. I can't reproduce it here. You might give it another couple fuel-ups and see if you get that behavior consistently.

And yeah, we base the current data on our server time which is in the Pacific time zone. We should use the time offset set in your profile instead. I'll add that to our to do list.

New version does not seem to work at all on my BB Tour. The main page buttons don't do anything when clicked on.

Are you using the native browser on your Blackberry Tour or Opera? If it's Opera, which version?

Oh, another quick question: do you have JavaScript enabled for whichever BB browser you're using? In the BB browser I believe it's at Menu->Options->Browser Configuration, then make sure "Support Javascript" is checked.

pb,

I have JS enabled on my BB curve, but it still will not let me select my vehicle to enter the fill up info. I think I am having the same issue as Matt.

What version of the BlackBerry OS do you have? Here's a list by model. Fuelly Mobile should work with OS 5+.
