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.
