### 5/5 — REALLY GOOD APP

*2023-01-05*

It works very well at night. You need to turn your brightness up all the way in the day but it’s a very good app and I like it for older cars.

### 5/5 — Best One Yet!

*2020-01-15*

Best speedometer app I’ve used so far, no advertisements, just nice large numbers and compass heading.  Cars speedometer sometimes doesn’t work so it’s nice to quickly open the app and check cars speed.  Thank you!!!

### 1/5 — 0 MPH ? More like Zero stars!

*2020-01-03*

It remained at 0 the whole time !DaFak

### 4/5 — Almost Great

*2019-07-21*

This app is almost perfect I wish there was an option to disable to cardinal direction indicator since when I’m driving it tends to get in the way I prefer just my speed.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time with this app.

*2019-07-17*

Horrible

### 1/5 — Eh it’s ok

*2019-05-16*

Miles per hour was a bit off the fact that you can’t change colors is weird because different colors can be used for different purposes not just a simple ugly green color having a color wheel would be perfect and having a simple settings button to be able to go into a settings menu to lock mph kmh and phone flip setting

**Developer response:** Thank you for the advice. All of these features have been included in the latest update. Please let me know if you have any other ideas or comments about this app.

### 5/5 — Great simple app.

*2019-03-06*

Quite simply stated, it does what it says it does. Minor tweaks are all that’s needed. Over all I like it a lot. I would like to be able to lock in the screen so it doesn’t flip when I move it to my dash and being able to flip it to where the top is where the home button is for when it is plugged in would be nice features to see in future updates.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your comments. The most recent update should have included all of your requested features. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any more comments in the future.

### 5/5 — Amazing app , really useful ,

*2019-01-19*

I think that you should add the ability to change color of hud

**Developer response:** Thank you for your advice. The most recent update gives users the ability to change colors for this app.

### 3/5 — Hud

*2018-09-12*

Works fine but shows in MILES and we are KM, there isn’t an option to change

**Developer response:** Thank you for your advice. The latest update, version 3, allows you to tap the speed number at the center of the screen and toggle between MPH and KPH.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2018-04-08*

Very useful when driving.  Helps me keep track of speed easier.
