Traffic Sign Camera helps you see your current speed and the detected speed limit at a glance while you drive. It combines live camera recognition with map-based speed-limit lookup from OpenStreetMap, then shows the result in a clear driving display with a GPS speedometer. ► Top Features • Live camera-based recognition of European speed limit signs. • OpenStreetMap speed-limit lookup for roads, city areas, zones, and places where physical signs may be missing. • Smart merging of camera and map sources into one overall speed-limit display. • GPS speedometer with color feedback when you approach or exceed the current limit. • Sound alerts for newly detected signs and overspeed warnings. • CarPlay support for viewing speed and limit information on your dashboard. • Configurable km/h or mph units, speed tolerance, warning threshold, camera mode, and map query interval. • Ultra wide camera support on compatible iPhones for a broader view of roadside signs. ► How It Works Traffic Sign Camera watches the road ahead with your iPhone camera, finds possible speed-limit signs with on-device machine learning, and reads the sign value with Vision text recognition. At the same time, it can use your current location and course to request map-based speed-limit data. The app combines both sources so you can keep your eyes on one simple limit display. ► Important Limitations Traffic Sign Camera is a driver assistance tool, not a replacement for your attention or local traffic law. • Optimized for European speed limit signs. US speed limits are not currently supported. • Poor lighting, bad weather, dirty windows, unusual signs, or narrow curves can reduce camera recognition quality. • The app does not currently detect every end-of-limit, town boundary, or special-case road rule. • Map data depends on OpenStreetMap coverage and an internet connection. • Missed or incorrect detections can occur. Always follow posted signs and local rules. ► Notes from the Developer If you like Traffic Sign Camera, a rating helps a lot.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: SpeedMeter NiKa at 100% against Speed Limit Camera's 32%. SpeedMeter NiKa also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). Speed Limit Camera's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 3.7) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 18 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Speed Limit Camera sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and SpeedMeter NiKa sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Speed Limit Camera holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Speed Limit Camera has 530 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of Speed Limit Camera's written reviews are positive against 100% of SpeedMeter NiKa's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Speed Limit Camera ships an update every 3 months, SpeedMeter NiKa every 18 months. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
