## What is Real Satellite Speed?

Real Satellite Speed uses your iPhone's GPS to show your true speed in real time - measured directly from satellite data, not estimated by the accelerometer.

Whether you're driving, cycling, running, or flying, get the most accurate speed reading possible right from your pocket.

SPEED SCREEN
- Large, easy-to-read speed display in km/h, mph or m/s
- Current altitude
- Session maximum speed - see how fast you've gone
- Clean dark interface designed for glanceability

SPEED ALARM
- Set a speed limit threshold
- The app plays an alert sound the moment you exceed it
- Easily adjust the target speed with + / - buttons or type it directly

DESIGNED FOR REAL USE
- Works on iPhone and iPad
- Portrait mode optimised
- Lightweight and battery-friendly
- No account required - open and go

Real Satellite Speed is perfect for drivers who want to double-check their speedometer, cyclists tracking their rides, pilots monitoring ground speed, or anyone curious about how fast they're really moving.

Warning: "Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life."

Disclaimer: This application is intended to be used for information purposes only. The author will not take any responsibility for any irresponsible use of the application and/or any inaccuracy of the speed displayed on the device due to poor satellite coverage.
