Vidometer uses the iPhone's built in sensors such as the Accelerometer, GPS, Gyroscope, and Compass to build a custom and accurate graphical data telemetry overlay.

Vidometer is built by the same team that brought you Hitcase - the waterproof, shockproof, and mountable ruggedized iPhone case.  Hitcase allows you to attach macro, wide, and super-wide (fisheye) lenses to you iPhone so you can capture video any way you want to. The Hitcase mounting system is GoPro® mount compatible which makes it even easier to mount your iPhone like a helmet camera / action camera - mount your iPhone on your body, helmet, windshield, dashboard, handlebars, whatever you can think of…

Don't forget to take Vidometer along for the ride - use it when you are out Mountain Biking, Skiing, Snowboarding, Skateboarding, Hiking, Sky Diving, Racing, Karting, Running, Dirt Biking, Flying, Skating, Rollerblading, Geocaching, Video Mapping, Navigating, Jumping up and down, or whatever! Vidometer functions great as a HUD, GPS Recorder, Dash Cam, Geocoder, Reverse Geocoder, Aviation, action sports recorder, and more!

### 4/5 — Sailing

*2026-02-01, version 3.9.2*

Would be great if I could choose knots as a speed display and show heading and/or course over ground. Would be fantastic for sailboat racing.

### 3/5 — Need Date and Time

*2024-12-27, version 3.9.2*

I purchased the Pro Version. However the date and time are not indicated in the screen and clips, how can the developer said this is for recording if this basic essentials are not stated in the video clips?

Updated after 3 days of use:

Yup, date/ time only provide in the “minimal overlay”. However, further found that the speed meter didn’t work in all “overlays”!! They are all Zero 0 km/h or 0 kph!! 

The developer needs to fix it!!

### 4/5 — iPhone 0.5x

*2024-10-06, version 3.9.2*

อยากให้ใช่เลน 0.5x บนiPhone ได้แล้วก็สามารถถ่ายแนวตั้งได้

### 1/5 — Atualização para os novos iPhones estamos em 2024!!

*2024-01-20, version 3.9.2*

Quando o aplicativo surgiu ele era inovador. Precisa de atualizações para se adaptar às novas telas e aos novos recursos de processamento tecnológicos.  Parou no tempo!

### 4/5 — Works really well , but 1 request .

*2024-01-07, version 3.9.2*

If possible can you make it so that it’s not mandatory to hold the phone in one direction , maybe add a feature that allows to flip camera or hud so that you can hold with right hand instead of left . Besides that everything is accurate and the mph is spot on I tested it on the express way on the way to go snowboarding .

### 5/5 — Simple and effective

*2023-12-27, version 3.9.2*

Just what I needed for trackday videos, gives a choice of overlays and colours to suit what I want

### 5/5 — Great app could be useful to have portrait orientation recording

*2023-09-14, version 3.9.2*

Great app could be useful to have portrait orientation recording

### 4/5 — Best there is, but needs 4K support

*2023-08-31, version 3.9.2*

This is by far the best GPS Camera app there is.  I only wish it would have 4K video support.   Considering 8K is starting up….

### 4/5 — Great app! Just needs wide angle support

*2023-07-09, version 3.9.2*

Just downloaded the app to record when I ride my motorcycle, but I just wish I could record with the wide angle lens and have more camera controls.

### 2/5 — A quand la prise en charge de la 4k ?

*2023-03-23, version 3.9.2*

A quand la prise en charge de la 4k ?
