Speed Timer is a precision GPS-based acceleration measurement tool designed for car enthusiasts, automotive journalists, and anyone who wants to know their vehicle's real-world performance. MEASURE ANY SPEED RANGE Set custom start and end speeds or use built-in presets like 0-100, 0-200, 100-200, and 60-130 km/h. Switch between km/h and mph units instantly. HOW IT WORKS 1. Select your speed range 2. Tap Start to arm the measurement 3. Accelerate — the app automatically detects when you cross the start speed 4. Timer stops precisely when you reach the target speed 5. View your corrected time with detailed analysis PRECISION ENGINEERING - Dual EMA (Exponential Moving Average) filtering for noise-free readings - Sub-sample threshold crossing interpolation for accurate timing - Automatic GPS bias and filter lag correction - Confidence rating (High / Medium / Low) based on GPS accuracy and acceleration data REAL-TIME SPEED GAUGE A beautifully designed gauge displays your current speed with smooth animations, color-coded status indicators, and live elapsed time during measurement. DETAILED ANALYTICS Every measurement includes: - Speed vs Time chart - Acceleration vs Time chart - Distance vs Time chart - Speed vs Distance chart - Corrected and raw times - Maximum speed reached - Average acceleration - GPS accuracy metrics COMPARE RUNS Side-by-side comparison of your last two runs with overlay speed charts and a detailed metrics table showing which run was faster. HISTORY & EXPORT - All measurements saved locally with up to 200 records - Swipe to delete unwanted records - Export individual runs as CSV - Export full history as JSON backup - Share data via any app CUSTOMIZABLE - Dark and light themes - km/h or mph units - Haptic feedback toggle - Advanced tuning: deadband, snap-to-zero, EMA filter alphas, correction bias offset PRIVACY FIRST Speed Timer works entirely offline. Your location data is used only for speed calculation and is never uploaded, shared, or stored beyond your device. Note: GPS accuracy depends on device hardware and environmental conditions. For best results, use in open areas with clear sky visibility. Speed Timer is intended for use on private roads and closed courses only.

Devim GPS is an enthusiast-built GPS speedometer and performance timer for drivers who want to understand a run, not just save a number. Measure acceleration or distance with your iPhone, inspect the data behind the result, and compare runs with the context that matters. No account or adapter is required to start. MEASURE SPEED AND DISTANCE • Time 0–60 mph, 0–100 km/h, 100–200 km/h, or any custom speed range. • Measure 60 ft, 1/8 mile, 1/4 mile, 1/2 mile, 1 mile, or a custom distance. • Automatic standing-start detection waits for confirmed movement. • Use iPhone GPS on its own or connect a compatible BLE OBD-II adapter. • Hear spoken speed-threshold announcements and follow live speed in metric or imperial units. UNDERSTAND EVERY RUN • Review speed graphs, splits, slope, altitude, G-force, route, and indicators that help you judge the result. • See the timing method, sample rates, signal context, and other evidence behind the time. • Organize results by vehicle and add photos and notes. • Build a clean share card and decide whether to include the graph, speed splits, or location. IPHONE AND APPLE WATCH • The Apple Watch companion is included at no extra cost. • Follow live speed, measurement state, distance progress, trip statistics, and recent results from your wrist. • Away from the iPhone, Apple Watch GPS works as a standalone speedometer. Recording or saving a measurement requires the connected iPhone with Devim GPS open. DEVIM GPS PRO Devim GPS Pro is a one-time purchase. Its core Pro features remain unlocked: GPS + OBD analysis, multiple garage vehicles, side-by-side run comparison, measurement CSV export, and unlimited saved runs. Weather, wind, and other online Pro features are included for two years from the purchase date where services are available. OBD compatibility depends on the vehicle and adapter; a compatible BLE adapter using ELM327-style commands is required. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account is required. Saved runs stay on your device unless you choose to share or export them. Optional analytics is off by default. GPS and OBD readings can vary with signal, device, vehicle, adapter, phone position, slope, and conditions. Devim GPS is not certified timing equipment. Configure the app while parked, secure the phone, and perform tests only in safe, legal, closed-course environments. Never operate the app while driving.
