UPGRADE The full version of Dashometer has ten years of five star reviews! ***** mike - v11.1 - Dec 27, 2018 I bought this app because i needed one that showed magnetic heading, as well as groundspeed for my experimental airplane. Wow, it does so much more, and displays in landscape or portrait. Can change display colors, review flight later with speed, times and altitudes, and the instructions are fantastic, great product, worth a lot more than I paid for it!! ***** Malix90x – Jun 7, 2016 It is the best in its genre as it is the most complete!
