Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Speedometer at 100% against Speedometer ⋙'s 57%. Speedometer also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Speedometer ⋙'s advantage is rating (4.4 vs 3.5) and ratings volume (15K vs 2). On price, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Speedometer ⋙ holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Speedometer ⋙ has 15K 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 57% of Speedometer ⋙'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Speedometer ships an update every 6 months, Speedometer ⋙ every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
