7-Eleven Fuel App

A brief guide to locking in OzBargain's favourite fuel deal m(

What is the 7-Eleven Fuel App?

The 7-Eleven Fuel is an app for iOS and Android that allows you to lock in a fuel price for the next 7 days. You can lock in any fuel that the 5 closest service stations offer. Why would this be useful? Well if you have just filled up your tank and the price cycle in your area is on the rise, then you will still be able to pay the price per litre that you have locked in.

A brief history of locking in with a mock location

Methods of locking in fuel prices using a Fake GPS app have been around since late 2016. This method involves downloading a GPS spoofing (mock location) app onto your device, setting your location and then returning to the 7-Eleven fuel app to find the cheapest fuel in your new location. The problem with this is that if you are not fast enough then the 7-Eleven app will notice that you are using a fake GPS to spoof your current location and giving you an error.

Then in 2018 Freighter released the first modded APK (Android Package) that removed the check that the official 7-Eleven app uses to see if a user is using a GPS spoofing app. After Freighter stopped publicly updating his modded APK, master131 took up the reigns of releasing the updated APKs. Early 2020 Freighter released a new method for mocking your location by incorporating it into the actual 7-Eleven app which removes the need for using a second app.

So how do I use Freighter's newest modded APK?

  1. Download the modded APK. There is a link at the bottom of this wiki.
  2. You will need to enable unknown sources.
  3. Once you have installed the APK, allow permission to your location
  4. Pull up ProjectZeroThree or your favourite 7-Eleven price crawler and find a desired Target Store
  5. Click on "Store Finder" and ensure there are stores displaying around your current location (if you can't see a single 7-Eleven store come up, there maybe something wrong with your locations permission.
  6. Either search for or click on the 7-Eleven Logo of the store you want to lock in at. Example of Search
  7. A toast message will display saying "Location saved. You can now continue to lock in."
  8. Press CANCEL on the directions popup that appears, and go back to the LOCK screen.
  9. Your 5 local stores will pop up, this is normal. After it “searches” your 5 closest stores, then it will jump to the store you chose.

Frequently Asked Questions

The part that everyone really loves!

Why did you make this Wiki?

Because I can. No, not really, because it will hopefully help people.

I get an "Error: this requires device ID"

If you are using Freighter's modded APK you probably haven't generated a device ID. Click on “Settings” and choose GENERATE A DEVICE ID. Force close the app, and then try again

Alternatively, if this is the first time you have started app, just force close the app and try again (if there is no GENERATE A DEVICE ID button)

When I try to lock after the 7-Eleven app finds the store, and I press "Lock Fuel Price" it just jumps back to the main "Find my Best Local Price" page

Have you already locked in twice in 24 hours?

There is a limit of 2 fuel locks per 24 hours per Device ID

This is not account specific

There are a few ways to address this:

  • If you are using Freighter's modded APK with the GENERATE A DEVICE ID function. Click on “Settings” and choose GENERATE A DEVICE ID. Force close the app, relaunch, and try to lock again
  • Try a different phone, it will have a different device ID.
  • Use AppCloner with AppCloner Premium and *assign* a random device ID against a clone of the APK (regardless of the source)

Can you add x or y to the APK?

No. Chances are that it doesn't need it, or that I don't think it's worth adding.

But I really want it!

Pay me to do it! No, I'm kidding, make a post on the forum about it and if it seems essential then I may contemplate it.

It doesn't work!

No, it does work. Follow the instructions, and there shouldn't be a problem

When I try to lock in it just redirects me back to the home screen

You can only lock in twice in 24 hours. You have probably exceeded that.

I hear that you can have multiple version of the app installed

Contact cwongtech, he will guide you through it. I have no idea knowledge of it and don't really want to learn about it.

Wow you are amazing!

Thanks, my mum thinks I am pretty cool too.

Locking in with your computer

There are ways to lock in a fuel price from the comfort of your computer. I'll try and outline a few below.

Freighter's Python Fuel Lock Script

You can use Python on your NAS/Linux/Windows/Mac etc to lock in a price. There are 2 options available: manual or automatic. The manual option lets you choose a suburb you want to lock your price from, and the automatic gets the best available price from ProjectZeroThree and sets your location to that store.

A detailed guide is available on the GitHub wiki.

SIMPLEST WAY IS TO GRAB A CHEAP DEVICE WITH [IOS 12](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IOS_12#iPhone) AND USE [3UTOOLS](http://www.3u.com/)

Nox / BlueStacks

Nox and BlueStacks are Android emulators for PC and Mac. This will let you emulate the Android operating system and you can install the official or modded 7-Eleven APK from there. An instruction set will be coming soon I hope.


This was mostly written by Freighter, I'm sure someone else will come along and help with it (hopefully).

but most of all, samy is my hero.
