It's on point but I got pulled over for 17 over the limit for an add about kalshi I got a ticket and I'm not happy because I just lost a bunch of money for trying to keep it by using something cheep. All I'm asking is that you get rid of adds. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t want to download! *2024-05-18, version 1.2.7* Won’t download. Seems like a scam! Now my information is in India or Nigeria 😔😒 ### 1/5 — Don’t download if you think it’s free *2024-05-15, version 1.2.7* Even though it’s free to download, it doesn’t function until you pay for it. What’s worse is the advertisements that take over your phone and don’t let you dismiss without closing the app. ### 1/5 — Don’t bother *2024-03-17, version 1.2.7* So many intrusive ads, it makes the app almost useless. ### 1/5 — Ended up working but not really accurate at slow speeds and EXPENSIVE! *2024-03-10, version 1.2.7* Am I seriously expected to pay $753.48 per year! #ripoff ### 4/5 — Probably the best Speedometer app *2024-03-08, version 1.2.7* Been looking for a speedometer app I can use in the car as a second screen when I’m connected to CarPlay. I’ve looked at quite a few and this one has the nicest design, although a way to hide the theme button would be nice (could be an option in the settings). Plus the app subscription is quite expensive! ### 1/5 — Phone on silent and dnd but ads are loud *2024-03-02, version 1.2.7* Yes, it shows the speed, but ads which don’t respect my phone settings are invasive, annoying, and disruptive. ### 1/5 — Üble Werbeseuche *2024-02-02* direkt deinstalliert ### 1/5 — I hate this app *2024-01-21* Not working properly ### 1/5 — Not free *2023-12-31, version 1.2.7* Says it is free with in app purchases but the app makes you pay for any of the items in the app. ### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht *2023-12-07* Ob zu Fuß, im Bus oder mit der Bahn: 0 km/h ### 1/5 — Schrott! *2023-09-25* Absolute Schwachsinn‘s App! Mega Zeitfresser sowie ekelhaft Werbeverseucht. Glückssache ob die Geschwindigkeit angezeigt wird! ### 1/5 — Didn’t work at all for me… *2023-09-24, version 1.2.7* Couldn’t get it to work at all. Maybe it’s me. ### 3/5 — Doesn’t work well at all *2023-09-23, version 1.2.7* This apt is totally useless It does not accurately keep up with the speed. It jumps all over the place and he’s not worth the money. It’s probably the worst one I’ve ever used. Unfortunately, only one I’ve ever purchased first and last time ### 1/5 — Funktioniert NICHT! *2023-09-20* Müll. ### 1/5 — It doesn’t work *2023-09-02, version 1.2.7* It just doesn’t work plain and simple ### 1/5 — crash *2023-08-17, version 1.2.7* I’m going from Minneapolis/st pual to chicago by train and I recorded the whole trip. however in the last 40 minutes of my trip, the app became super laggy and then crashed. I spent 10 hours to record the trip!!!!! and it has not been stored, so I lost rhe whole trip record. SO GREAT :)) ### 1/5 — Unauthorized charging to your account *2023-08-05, version 1.2.7* This app will continue to charge you and will not refund you, even if you cancel before the free trail expires ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not free *2026-05-08, version 1.2.8* Not a free app, you are immediately given a subscription when starting the app. ### 1/5 — Not working *2025-10-30* Please cancel subscription. It’s showing speed of 0km/hr everytime. ### 1/5 — Speedometer GPS Tracker *2025-05-18, version 1.2.7* In Europe it seems useless. 0 mph up river. ### 1/5 — Wasted money *2025-05-17, version 1.2.7* I want to cancel this. How can I cancel please? ### 1/5 — Way to Expensive *2024-10-08, version 1.2.7* Can’t figure out why this would cost $10 per WEEK. Absolutely makes no sense. ### 1/5 — Naja. Ist viel Werbung *2024-09-16* Nicht empfehlenswert ### 1/5 — Not accurate *2024-09-01, version 1.2.7* The app is not accurate to my car ### 1/5 — Ripped off *2024-06-27, version 1.2.7* Think it’s set me up for a “premium “ trial I didn’t want and charged me ### 1/5 — Only paid functions *2024-06-08* app doesn’t do anything, just paid functions available ### 1/5 — Spam app that doesn’t work *2024-06-05, version 1.2.7* It literally does nothing but pop up loud video ads and asks you to pay money ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Help me *2026-01-05, version 1.2.7* I love this app it is awesome I get to see how fast my bus is going most of the time she is speeding or going to slow ### 5/5 — Warum so schlechte Bewertungen? *2023-08-21* Also ich hab mir die App heruntergeladen und es hat alles funktioniert habe die free Version. Weiß garnicht warum soviele über die APP schlecht reden aber bei mir ging alles. ### 5/5 — GREATNESS *2023-03-16, version 1.2.7* It’s GREAT ### 5/5 — Great app *2023-03-11, version 1.2.7* So far so good seems to be calibrated like 95% dead on my speedometer sq5 Audi stage 1 ecu tune ### 5/5 — Great app *2023-03-03, version 1.2.6* This is a great app. I’ve been using it on my Apple Watch. (But note to developers there seems to be a bug and it no longer opens, possibly since a watch OS update; phone is fine.) ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2023-01-09, version 1.2.4* I was recording while going zero kms per hour. I shall resume when I move. ### 5/5 — Try’s to check ..thiz out! *2023-01-04, version 1.2.4* Hope this will works! ### 5/5 — Collect evidence *2022-12-02, version 1.2.4* This app is a great way to document the high speeds of nut job bus drivers. ### 5/5 — It does what it says and is free but not all of it *2022-11-26, version 1.2.4* It does what it says and is free unless you get premium it also Tracks your highest speed my the only thing I don’t like is that it doesn’t have a mph version but idk if it’s true I just downloaded this ### 5/5 — Works for me! *2022-11-12, version 1.2.4* I have used speedometer apps in the past while behind the wheel that rely on GPS. This one is no exception. The app does just as it offers. I haven’t had ads pop up probably because I don’t use it that much. However, the readings were accurate enough to let me know how fast an Amtrak train was going and how fast we were flying, which I got a hoot out of! You just need to be sitting by a window so your device can locate GPS signals. Pretty cool! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
