### 1/5 — Speed limit

*2021-04-20, version 1.5*

I was under the impression this app would show me the speed limit for the roads I travel. Someone had made a remark in their review one year ago. I downloaded it thinking after a year it would be working. It’s not. Therefore I’m removing the app. Thx anyway.

### 1/5 — No speed limit

*2021-03-29, version 1.5*

There is nothing speed limet

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-07-23, version 1.5*

Couldn’t detect speed limit. Would be better off to use Apple Maps and just put in your destination, because it actually gives an accurate speed

### 2/5 — No speed limit

*2019-06-07, version 1.5*

Same here with a review from a year ago. Doesn’t show speed limit on the road I’m driving. Thought with that being a issue a year ago it would have been fixed

### 4/5 — Gives you the speed

*2018-08-02, version 1.5*

I use it to monitor speed for trolling for fish. Works decent.
