Coordinates makes it a snap to convert between the three formats for latitude and longitude: decimal degrees, degrees and decimal minutes, and degrees-minutes-seconds, as well as UTM coordinates. Just tap the type of coordinates you have, enter them, and all four formats are instantly shown. Locate yourself with GPS with a tap of a button, which also shows your current GPS precision. You can also copy or send your location, show it on a map, and get a bearing and direction to coordinates, which is great when you're hiking or boating. Tap the list button to see a list of all your waypoints, and from that screen, you can export your waypoints.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Speedometer at Free against Coordinates's $0.99. Speedometer also leads on review sentiment (75% vs 60%) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 6 months). Coordinates's advantage is rating (3.3 vs 1.0) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
