Steps to Find Nearest Gas Stations Using Google Maps
- Open your Google Maps app on the phone, and ensure you have location (GPS) services turned ON. This helps Google locate your area and find relevant outlets nearby.
- Now, check for options at the top, such as work, ATMs, restaurants, hotels, etc. Among them, you can find gas as one of the options, and tapping on it will show the gas stations near your location.
- Depending on the region, this could sometimes be written as Petrol. Western countries call it gas, which is the same fuel as Petrol.
- Spotting the nearest gas station, you can tap on the red balloon to learn more about the outlet. These include the directions, website (if having), photos, working hours, contact details, and reviews. You’ll also be shown cards of them at the bottom when checking.
- Moreover, you can filter the results as desired. You’ll see options like Relevance, Open Now, Visited, Not Visited, and More Filters in the above options. Tapping on More Filters will open options for more sorting, like by distance and working hours.
