### 1/5 — Wrong speed limits cannot edit

*2016-07-25*

In the uk we have 20/30/40/50/60/70
Speed limits so this app is completely usless because it does not alert to those speeds.
WASTE OF MY MONEY NEED REFUND?

### 1/5 — Waste of money.

*2016-02-20*

Pointless and doesn't work.

### 1/5 — Totaler Mist

*2015-12-08*

Dafür brauch man kein Geld ausgeben wenn man seine Geschwindigkeit selber einstellen muss

### 1/5 — Doesn't provide speed limits

*2015-11-23*

this app doesn't tell you what the speed limit is on the road that you're driving on so it seems useless to me

### 1/5 — Totally useless

*2015-04-12, version 1.3.0*

I want my 0.99 back

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2013-10-03*

Driving past 65mph signs right now and app is saying the speed limit is 55mph. Waste of $.99

### 1/5 — Not worth my money!!

*2013-06-25*

Is not what I expected it just tells you how fast you're driving but not which is the speed limit, you have to set it up on your own...

### 1/5 — Apps

*2013-01-25, version 1.2.1*

Does not work. Is not accurate

### 1/5 — Ditto

*2012-01-16*

What they all said. Zero stars. Want my money back. Can't believe this made apple app approval.

### 1/5 — Are you kidding?

*2011-10-18*

Like many other reviewers, I thought this app would inform me of the speed limit of the road I'm on. It does not. What it *does* do is too stupid to describe, and it does a poor job of it too. Would love to get my money back.

### 1/5 — Murks

*2011-09-26*

Das app funktioniert nicht. Rausgeschmissenes Geld. Nicht kaufen.

### 1/5 — Horrible useless app

*2011-07-31*

I thought this app was one that would tell you the speed limit of the road you're on, but it doesn't. Then when u try to choose a speed limit, it starts calling an invalid phone number. Previous poster is right: this app is not even worth one penny!!

### 1/5 — AWFUL APP

*2011-01-21*

This app is a waste of money, it barely does what it says it will. Apple needs to weed out apps like this from the app store to save its users from wasting their time and money!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Inaccurate

*2010-12-17, version 1.2.0*

I thought this was a app where you could look up the limit, which is probably my fault for not reading thoroughly. But the speed is inaccurate which makes the tolerance too high or too low. I found myself going 5 over the limit I gave and it didn't alarm because it said I was still under the limit.

Also, clicking a limit automatically takes you to your phone app and calls some long invalid number.

### 1/5 — Not suitable for UK use (Version 1.1.0)

*2010-08-18*

Please note this app is not suitable for UK use, as it has an option to switch between imperial miles and metric kilometres, which sadly also switches between US and European style speed limit signs (in the UK, we have European style signs but we use imperial miles). And this isn't just cosmetic, as US speed limits are for speeds like 25, 35, 45 etc rather than 30, 40, 50 etc.

### 1/5 — Very Slow.

*2010-01-30*

Slow

### 1/5 — Not at all accurate

*2009-11-28*

This program is not accurate at all. Sometimes it was low and sometimes it was high, but my favorite was driving on the interstate and it told me I was going 2 miles an hour when I was doing the max speed limit.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Unsourced Data

*2025-09-25*

99 Cents to help them crowd source  speed limits on roads?  Bogus

### 1/5 — What a joke

*2020-07-25*

Stupid app that don’t do anything.

### 1/5 — Speed trick

*2019-07-23*

If you want an app that tells you the speed limit at your current location, this is not it!

### 1/5 — Useless waste of money.

*2018-10-23*

Doesn’t work at all!

### 1/5 — Not good!

*2018-08-16*

I wanted an app that showed me what the speed limit was in areas while traveling.  Sometimes I’m looking off or an 18-wheeler gets between me & the speed limit sign.  I always want to be aware of the posted speed limits.  This app just did what my own speedometer does!  It was no good to me and I deleted the app even though I bought it for 99 cents.

### 1/5 — Not happy!

*2018-07-08*

Reading not accurate. Does not use GPS and map data to detect speed limit.

### 1/5 — Total waste of money

*2017-09-05*

I had to try it but all I did was to waste my money.. I should have paid more attention to the reviews.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2017-08-06*

Don't waste your time, you have to put the n the speed. Should of bought a coke instead.

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2017-04-15*

Totally useless app. I bought so I could see the speed limits on the roads I'm driving, but you have to select the speed limit manually so it's not actually telling you anything useful.  Very misleading. Should be taken off the App Store

### 1/5 — Absolutely Stupid

*2016-11-11*

Don't waste your time or money on this worthless app.

## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated)

### 3/5 — Not what I expected

*2014-05-20*

I was looking for an app that would tell me what the speed limit of the road I was on-this app does not do that. You have to know the speed limit, select the speed limit, and THEN it will tell you if you are going over the speed limit you selected.

### 2/5 — Beeps when you go over. Have to set your own speed.

*2013-03-18*

I like it for my purposes  I'm sure there is a better app out there for indicating whether I'm speeding.

### 2/5 — Lags too much

*2011-12-11*

Great concept. However the app speeds lags miserably behind my speedo or my gps speed indicator. At steady driving speed of 70 kms, it was 4 kms below my gps and speedometer. Seems that the algorithm needs tuning.  This sound quality was poor and the looping did not seem frequent enough
