Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Speedometer at 100% against Speedometer ٞ's 52%. Speedometer also leads on iOS requirement (9.3 vs 13.0).

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Speedometer ٞ holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Speedometer ٞ has 778 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Speedometer's written reviews are positive against 52% of Speedometer ٞ's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Speedometer ships an update every 6 months, Speedometer ٞ every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
