SPEED is a hyper-focused speedometer for iPhone. No clutter, no maps, no menus to dig through—just your speed, rendered beautifully and instantly the moment you open the app. At its heart is a bespoke seven-segment display, hand-drawn in vector paths rather than a generic font. Every digit illuminates like authentic dashboard hardware: active segments glow brightly while inactive ones stay faintly visible in the background, just like a real LED readout. The result is crisp at every size, from iPhone SE to Pro Max. FEATURES • Bespoke seven-segment readout — custom vector-drawn digits with an authentic hardware glow. • Instant MPH / KMH or even KTS switching — tap to swap units; your choice is remembered next time. • Stays awake on your mount — the screen never auto-dims while you're tracking, perfect for a car mount or bike handlebar. • Beautiful light & dark themes — pure OLED black with neon green at night, crisp charcoal on light gray by day, following your system setting automatically. • Smooth, real-time telemetry — GPS-driven speed powered by CoreLocation. • 100% free — no ads, no in-app purchases, no locked features. Ever. PRIVACY FIRST s.p.e.e.d has a zero data footprint. Your location is used only in the moment to calculate your speed—nothing is stored on your device, no routes or history are kept, and nothing is ever transmitted over the network. BUILT TO STAY OUT OF YOUR WAY When you minimize the app or lock your screen, location updates suspend immediately to protect your battery. Lightweight, focused, and respectful of your phone and your privacy. Open it. Glance at it. That's the whole app.

S.P.E.E.D's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 7) and ads (none vs shown). On update cadence, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
