See your speed. Make it yours. Speedometer puts your current GPS speed front and centre with large digits and a clean display. Use it on iPhone or iPad, or check your speed from your wrist with the standalone Apple Watch app. YOUR SPEED AT A GLANCE • Choose km/h, mph, knots or m/s. • See GPS status when the signal is weak or unavailable. • Use the iPhone and iPad display in portrait or landscape. CHOOSE YOUR DASHBOARD On iPhone and iPad, choose G-force, trip statistics or no module for a simple speed display. Change your choice in Settings or explore the options in the interactive introduction. YOUR TRIP IN NUMBERS See top speed, moving average, distance and time in motion. Stops are excluded from the average. Your totals stay saved between app launches and module changes until you reset them. A confirmation helps prevent accidental resets. Trip measurement runs while the app is open in the foreground with reliable GPS, regardless of your selected module. Measurement pauses in the background, during the introduction or when GPS is unreliable. Gaps are not counted as distance or time. A DISPLAY THAT FITS YOU Choose from five colour themes and four digit styles. Follow your device’s light or dark appearance, or keep the app always light or always dark. YOUR SPEED ON YOUR WINDSHIELD HUD mode mirrors your speed and selected module so their reflection in your windshield reads the right way round. Place your device securely on the dashboard with the screen facing the glass, keeping your view clear. Reflection visibility depends on the windshield, screen brightness and ambient light. Set it up while parked. EXPLORE MOTION On iPhone and iPad, view current and peak G-force alongside roll, pitch and yaw. Measure overall acceleration or an individual device axis. Reset the peak and orientation reference whenever you need to. Motion features require an available device motion sensor. SPEED ON YOUR WRIST The Apple Watch app measures speed independently of your iPhone. Choose your unit on the watch and glance at your speed while walking, running, cycling or boating. Trip statistics and dashboard modules are available on iPhone and iPad. GET STARTED YOUR WAY An interactive introduction helps you explore the controls and personalise the display. You can revisit it from Settings. On iPhone and iPad, add a Siri shortcut for your current speed. Speed measurement requires location access and a usable GPS signal. Keep your attention on your surroundings and adjust the app only when it is safe to do so.

About

Digital Velocity

Features
Read full description

The velocity is obtained by GPS, so permission for location is necessary. To obtain the most real velocity possible, it is necessary to have GPS coverage, therefore, try to obtain the velocity in the clearest places possible. In addition, it may take a while to calculate, be patient if a velocity of 0 initially appears. It's a Apple Watch app of high energy consumption, since it consults the velocity in real time by GPS. We have optimized the app as much as possible for Apple Watch, so only show the speed when the screen is active. However, try to use it only when necessary. The velocity can be obtained in km/h or in mph. To change the format, simply touch the switch. Important! Please, DO NOT use this app while driving.
