# Speed Tracker vs Speedometer GPS

The clearest difference is rating: Speedometer GPS at 5.0 against Speed Tracker's 4.6. Speed Tracker's advantage is ratings volume (6.2K vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Speed Tracker sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Speedometer GPS sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Speedometer GPS holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Speed Tracker has 6.2K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Speed Tracker ships an update monthly, Speedometer GPS fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
