Best speedometer app 👍🏼

Was just looking for a simple speedometer but this one is actually pretty nicee!!! Super easy to use and trip history is a nice bonus. Been using it for a bit now and no complaints so far.

Free plan is non existent

They used to have a genuinely usable free plan, and the app even clearly says I’m on the free plan with Pro marked as optional.

However, all of a sudden you can’t actually use the app on the free plan anymore. You press Start and a full-screen subscription prompt appears, trying to push you into a weekly or yearly subscription. Close that screen and you’re simply taken back to the Start screen, only to press Start again and get the exact same subscription pop-up.

It puts you into an endless loop where the app is effectively unusable unless you subscribe.

I would never buy an app through this kind of forced subscription approach. If you want to offer a free plan, let people actually use the free functionality. This is a really poor way of doing things and has completely put me off the app.

Response from developer

We already replied to your email about this, but just wanted to clarify here as well. The app has always offered one free use to try it out, with a subscription required after that. Nothing has changed about that, and we haven't removed any previously available free features. We understand that a subscription might not be for everyone, and that's totally fine. But we do want to clear up the impression that we suddenly took away a free plan, because that's not what happened. Thanks for giving the app a try.

Pointless

Why would i pay for an app before i can try to see some of its value? This app doesn’t allow you use anything at all for free. It is terrible for users and it makes no business sense whatsoever.

Response from developer

We understand where you're coming from. We believe people should be able to try an app before deciding whether it's worth paying for. That's why everyone gets one free use, with no subscription required Continued use does require a subscription. We understand that our pricing may not be the right fit for everyone, depending on their needs and budget, and we completely respect that. We want people to make that decision for themselves If you weren't able to access your free use, please reach out to us. We'd be happy to look into what happened.

Best speedometer app I’ve used. The G-Force is cool. The corner ratings make driving more funn. 🤩
