App for classic and sport oldtimer uniformity rally. This App is suitable for classic oldtimer uniformity rally. Speedpilot indicates the average speed not only with nummeri but visually with a progress indicator. So it is easier to understand if it is in average speed or not. The clock can be synchronized with GPS, atomic time or manual. The "Head-Up-Display" function is optionally available via the settings. This allows the mirrored display to be projected onto a windshield. Added the function "Share display". Share the display with a second smartphone/tablet so that the driver also sees the data from the current test. Progress indicator: Yellow = above average Red = below average Green = on average App works: 1. enter the average speed before 2. press the button "Start". * Distance measurement with wheel sensor (sensor-kit) or GPS The app can evaluate / measure the distance traveled with a wheel sensor or with GPS. Please note that GPS can only provide reliable measurements on open terrain. Therefore, please do not write negative reviews if the app cannot provide reliable measurements. For this reason I recommend the use of a wheel sensor (sensor kit) for mountain areas. For the start can be used an external Bluetooth-button. Further information at: http://filippo-software.de * A full version can be purchased via the In-App Purchase option. There are 3 subscriptions to choose from: - Full-version for 1 year - Full-version for 6 months - Full-version for 1 month * Note! The subscriptions are not renewed automatically.
