What Users Say
Real reviews from drivers, cyclists, and boaters using the app every day.
"Great for the basics. Great choice of colors if you pay to upgrade. Also, the free version is literally the only free version of any speedometer app that doesn't completely obstruct your dash with constant ads. Thanks!"

"This is a simple but very well presented app with just the right amount of data. The ability to change colours is a nice touch. Placed in the correct position with the choice of colour scheme you never need to exceed your national speed limits."

Our road-based speed limit detection uses comprehensive databases updated regularly. While accuracy is high, always follow posted signs as the ultimate authority. The feature is designed as a helpful reminder, not a replacement for attentive driving.
Yes! Core speedometer functions (speed, distance, trip recording) work entirely offline using only GPS. Premium features like weather info and speed limit updates require internet connection.
