### 3/5 — Time for a Facelift…

*2025-04-14*

It’s been 4 years now?? Time to give us a little more for the price we pay for no ads. Could we make a color change on the display for night driving, like red or green? How about a flop display for HUD use? And maybe let us choose the number size. Good, but ready for better.

### 5/5 — Well worth it

*2024-04-28*

The speedometer on my dash can be hard to see and I don’t want to accidentally start speeding because I wasn’t looking. This thing on my phone mounted on the desk is great. Like others, I started with the free and then went with no ads. One time charge. Superior product even if you don’t use it all the time.

### 4/5 — Fait le boulot

*2023-03-17*

Avis à tous ceux et celles qui roulent en moto et souhaite avoir vraiment la vitesse réel ainsi que la marge acceptable pour ne pas perdre de points inutilement ni verser de l'argent à l'état pour soi-disant en partie refaire les routes !!! la bonne blague.... bref ce mini soft fait le travail avec une bonne précision dans la valeur indiquée. J'ai comparé avec mon Coyotte et visiblement ils sont raccord.... Attention aux étourdis de bien indiquer en KM/H et non en miles ....L'affichage de la vitesse est en grand alors vraiment efficace pour bien voir

### 5/5 — Great App

*2022-12-15*

I have been using this for some time and are very happy with it. Would love to have support for Apple Watch & Apple Car Play. Thanks

### 5/5 — Brilliant!!

*2021-02-10*

I used the free app for some time and recently upgraded to the ad free version. Very happy with the purchase and would absolutely recommend to anyone.

### 5/5 — Great!

### 1/5 — Did not work

*2018-08-09*

Paid for this app and downloaded it. It never worked. I do not use Facebook, which is appently the only way to contact the  company that produced the app, and cannot seem to find any way to obtain a refund. Avoid this app.

**Developer response:** Hey there, thanks for writing in! Sorry to hear about that--often this is caused by changes to location sharing on your device. Please ensure that you have allowed the app to access location services (in Settings > Privacy > Location Services).

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2018-05-23*

So I tried out the free version of this app first and it worked well for about a month and then it mysteriously stopped registering speed. The number 0 went from white to gray and is now staying gray and no matter what I do or how fast I go, it will not change from 0.  So I thought maybe I need to just buy the full version so I deleted the free version and paid for and downloaded the full version. I am extremely disappointed to say that it was an utter mistake to pay for it because even the full version of the app wont register speed. I have carried out all troubleshooting recommendations to no avail.  I want my money back!!!!!!
