### 2/5 — Icon to a user info screen would help.

*2023-05-24, version 1.5*

Speedometer works, travel direction works. speed limit didn’t work at all. What is the big green bar?

### 2/5 — where’s the actual speed LIMIT?

*2021-12-30, version 1.5*

can we please get the actual speed limit?!? everything else works fine. but the speed limit is really the reason i downloaded…thinking i would see both my speed and the speed limit for wherever i am

### 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.

### 3/5 — No settings

*2018-05-09, version 1.5*

I agree with the other review that I set mine up to know location but it does not list the speed limit where I am. I would also like a setting to perhaps change the colors and also to illuminate the decimal of the speed. Otherwise it works well and seems to be pretty accurate. My dash is hard to read in sunlight and this helps. No settings tab

### 2/5 — It’s ok

*2018-03-01, version 1.5*

This app doesn’t show the speed of the road you are on, which is the main reason I got the app and am unable to contact the ap developer except via FB (which I am not on)

### 4/5 — Very good.....

*2017-09-25, version 1.5*

I like the size and font of the speed display. The compass works well. I would like if a miles drive with reset. Overall, I do like it!

### 1/5 — Expectations

*2017-01-26, version 1.5*

It would be a great app if it would actually showed the speed limit of the road that you are on like they say it does but it does it. So it is worthless as any other speed odometer app.

### 1/5 — Ruined by ads

*2016-09-26, version 1.5*

Google edge continues to ruin many apps this is one of them don't bother there's no way to opt out.  POS!

### 1/5 — Lacks Speed Limits

*2016-08-25, version 1.5*

Works fine as a basic, big number speedometer but it does not provide speed limit as advertised. I drove on both US Interstate highways and intrastate roads around & within Maryland. I tried it again today on US 95 and the app never displayed speed limits. Unfortunately it simply doesn't do much more than display your speed.

### 3/5 — Klm/hr display

*2015-10-12, version 1.4*

Does not go yellow or red over SPEED LIMIT when in Klm/hr as limit is always in miles/ hr , if 100 Klm/hr limit would have to go over 160 to change to yellow.

### 1/5 — Won't connect to watch

*2015-10-11, version 1.4*

App works fine, but the watch just says 0mph. Rubbish!

### 1/5 — Waist of time.

*2015-08-31, version 1.4*

I'm all over Chicago and it won't display posted speed limits.

### 2/5 — Needs Work

*2015-08-23, version 1.4*

Like simple UI and speed number color change when over limit, but the "speed limit " only works about 60% of the time even on US highways & Interstates, otherwise 5 stars.

Installed on iPhone 6

### 4/5 — Great app

*2015-05-02, version 1.4*

Great for when your driving and can't find a speed limit sign.  Also useful for figuring out if you speedometer is accurate.

### 4/5 — Great but could be better

*2015-04-23, version 1.4*

I like how the speedo changes color as you go over the posted limit but an audible alarm would be better.    That way I keep my eyes on the road instead of the speedometer.  It would be nice to be able to customize when the warning sounds. ( ie 5 over vs 10 over).   I drive a fleet vehicle where my speed is tracked by GPS.   If I'm not careful I could lose my company truck.

### 1/5 — Supposed to be a companion app for pebble

*2015-04-05, version 1.4*

But it doesn't work with or even register that it is supposed to work with pebble.  Works fine as iPhone gps speedometer but that's not why I got it.

No da limite

### 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

### 1/5 — Perfect if it worked!

*2018-03-18, version 1.5*

I love the idea of this app.  It has the perfect layout of info I desire while driving.  BUT IT DOES NOT WORK!  It WOULD be perfect if it displayed the speed limit.  Lots of apps display speed.  Waze displays speed limits but the display is too small.  Make it work, please...

### 1/5 — Not as advertised

*2018-03-08, version 1.5*

The speedometer works fine but it does not show what the actual speed limit is where you are driving. I do not recommend this app.

### 1/5 — PAILSAYER2

*2017-11-07, version 1.5*

Doesn’t display any road speeds in any area I travel on current road only shows my speed defeats the purpose of app iv tried to unload then reload but still doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Not worth the bother
