I noticed yesterday that gas prices were not available any longer for gas stations found in navigation, after premium expired.
Now, looking for gas stations, you see the list of stations with the distance and an estimated of how much time getting there will add to your trip (without counting actual fueling time).

This was actually useful: although the prices were not completely up to date, they reflect which gas station tends to be pricier than the other.

My free trial ended yesterday and that was one feature I might use occasionally on longer trips. IMO, it's not worth the annual subscription and I can just use Gasbuddy when needed.

From what I understand the other feature that was included that I might miss is traffic conditions highlighted on the map but can always use Google maps for that as well when needed.

What irritates me is that my trial is to go to the end of April but I've been notified it expires in one day.
I don't see much value in renewing but decided for $99.99 for a year to go for it.
Using the app informs that a third party "Stripe" manages payments for BMW. They show a 40-50 page privacy statement that pretty much ends it for me.
I'm financing through BMW and don't want another company with their hands on my wallet and data.

Stripe is a credit card payment processor, is one of the best. They process and store only the credit card, not your other info.
In the tech world, they are one of the most used companies to process credit cards.
