### 5/5 — Very good app

*2024-08-27*

My 1974 BMW 2002tii was made for the Sicilian market and everything is metric.  This app is a huge help:

Big, bright and legible numbers, and nothing else.  No compass, no MPG numbers, widgets or gadgets. Just, well, just big numbers showing me my speed in MPH.

Its still a little too early to tell if it is set slightly off like a car’s speedometer but if it is it’s very close.  It also seems to have the slightest of lags, especially at lower speeds. But still, two thumbs up.  

Highly recommended.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the great review!

Wow, a 1974 BMW 2002tii, that sounds fantastic. It's truly an pleasure to know that our app complements the dashboard of such a classic car.

We use GPS to calculate speed, which means the readings are generally more accurate compared to a car's speedometer, which can be affected by various factors like tire wear and calibration. Regarding the slight lag you mentioned – the app relies on data from iOS, which is refreshed about once per second. We’re not big fans of this limitation either and are actively looking into ways to improve it.

By the way, we also have a Pro version of this app with compass and widgets :)

Thank you again for the feedback, and we hope the app continues to serve you well on your drives!

### 5/5 — It’s a great app

Nice, simple and clean. Great speedometer app
