See the speed limit and your current speed in a clear, distraction-free display made for driving. Speed Limit Fullscreen uses OpenStreetMap road data and matches nearby roads with your direction of travel. Automatic offline maps prepare the smallest available region for your location. You can also browse maps manually or save a trip to download the maps along its route before leaving. Customize overspeed alerts, warning sounds, cellular downloads, storage limits, and a mirrored heads-up display. The Apple Watch app can automatically detect a drive and keep your current speed visible while your wrist is lowered. Fresh speed-limit information resumes when you raise your wrist. The free version includes 15 minutes of speed-limit display each day. PRO removes the daily limit. Always follow traffic signs, local laws, and road conditions; map data can be incomplete or inaccurate.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Speed Limit Fullscreen at Free against MetroView GPS Navigation's $5.99. Speed Limit Fullscreen also leads on rating (4.7 vs 2.6) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months). MetroView GPS Navigation's advantage is review sentiment (73% vs 33%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On ratings volume, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
