Errands

A fuel stop that barely bends your route

Refuelling isn't the hard part — finding a station that doesn't drag you off your corridor is. Mini Detour keeps a fuel stop on the road you're already taking and shows the detour in minutes.

Fuel: why the timing matters

Fuel is a low-hours-sensitivity errand: most stations run long or around the clock, so the detour matters far more than closing time. Mini Detour ranks by the minutes each stop adds rather than fussing over hours that rarely bind.

Fuel: how Mini Detour plans the stop

Add fuel to your plan and Mini Detour places it where it costs the least detour, alongside your other errands. The short dwell keeps the rest of the timeline honest.

Open on arrival

Asking whether a shop is open now is the wrong question: Mini Detour checks the opening hours for the time you arrive and gives every result a clear verdict.

Questions

Does it compare fuel prices?
No. Mini Detour is about keeping the stop on your route with the smallest detour, not about price comparison.
Can I mix a fuel stop with errands?
Yes. Fuel is one category among many and can share a plan with a supermarket or pharmacy, each ranked by detour.

Run this errand without leaving your route

Mini Detour plans the whole trip around the stops you actually need — open when you arrive, ranked by the smallest detour.
