### 3/5 — Does not track distance for me

*2024-04-09*

I would give this 5 stars but it does not track distance. Always stays on 0 miles.  Everything else tracks fine.

### 3/5 — Weather Not Updating…

*2022-01-10*

I don’t like to purchase a product and then find out some parts of it don’t work, that unprofessional..I was going to use this app for cycling but the weather feature didn’t work which made me opt for a refund.

### 3/5 — Was lovely but recent update has made It ugly! :(

*2019-08-29*

Still works,think your old landscape theme was way better than the nasty one we have now,I’m on a bicycle so prefer that LCD look and haven’t any need of a hud display,I think that’s the only reason you’d revert to the basic and pig ugly theme of white on black,it should be an option we can pick or edit! I use the old version on my iPhone 6S but I’d rather have it on my main phone here. I love that old version & rated it 5*
please revert the skin back or let us pick. I now use another app on this phone as it lets me edit the look to a similar look if your old LCD theme. Hope you can do the same here and let us edit as even cars now have various colours for dash and you could do better than black and white so easily. I’ll give you back deducted stars...
Thanks

Lat long info not available

### 2/5 — Iphone 4

*2016-10-01*

Ну вот, про оптимизацию для четверки опять забыли. Пользуются им еще люди. Он у меня в машине как раз спидометром и был, почините пожалуйса

### 3/5 — Needs an update

*2016-07-03*

This app used to work very well, but now it only works if you give it access to location services even if not using the app - it does not work properly if you allow location services only when using the app. 

This app was last updated about a year ago and it appears that it has been abandoned. 

Three stars because it has not been updated to work with location services only when the app is being used.

### 1/5 — Use to work

*2016-04-29, version 2.1*

This was my favorite speedometer it does not work any more.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2016-02-28, version 2.1*

Was great, not working now.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2015-09-24, version 2.1*

### 1/5 — Reynco

*2015-09-20, version 2.1*

### 1/5 — Frechheit! 🤬

*2024-11-15*

Ich habe für die App einst bezahlt und werde nun mit geistesgestörter Werbung genötigt. Ich würde NIE auf eine App-Werbung reagieren. Denn das ist nur etwas von und für jene mit einstelligem IQ.

### 1/5 — Ads in the paid version

*2021-08-28, version 3.3.3*

This is a paid version, but there are advertisements. What is the use of the paid version if the annoying advertisements are still present, the only concern is to collect the largest amount of money where is the credibility

### 1/5 — Now rubbish.

*2021-07-07*

App cannot be used until advertising for two other apps are clicked out. Very annoying to have a delay when I went to use this app in a hurry. App will be deleted after this review. It’s now rubbish!!

### 1/5 — distance travel is not working

*2020-06-29, version 3.3.1*

The distance covered from one points to the other is not recording or reading. it says 00 km

### 1/5 — Google maps?  Are you serious?

*2019-02-16, version 3.2*

Yeh, like I'm going to give google my gps location so they can track me. Too bad the developer hasn't realized Apple has a mapping system on this actual device.

### 1/5 — Going back 5 years the complaints are still the same

*2019-02-13, version 3.1*

Looked interesting and is something I would have purchase but glad I didn’t. So far can’t get maps to come on I even tried making sure Goggle map was active. It senses speed even while my phone is sitting on the table. I’ll look forward to new enhancements or fixes.

### 1/5 — Still - doesn’t work

*2019-02-11, version 3.1*

After all the complaints of crashing etc., the app still crashes on both IPad Pro 10.5” and IPhone 6s Plus. 

Problems include:
1.) Map doesn’t always appear regardless of choosing Sat, Hybrid or Street etc. 
2.) Compass flips out and the GUI changes to an elliptical graphic that doesn’t stay in the applicable spot.
3.) The app will crash within a few minutes of trying to use.

Uninstalled for now. Glad it was free else I would 100% get a refund!

### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne plus

*2017-10-07*

Ne fonctionne plus depuis la dernière mise à jour.

### 1/5 — Crash

*2017-09-08, version 2.6*

Issue of closing when you open the app is still NOT fixed very disappointed! I would like a refund!

### 1/5 — Doesn't even open !

*2017-08-31, version 2.6*

Can't open the app! 
Waste of time and money
How do I get a refund? 
Ha ha .. Ya Right.
