Speedometer
Read full descriptionHide full description
Your speed. Instantly. Speedometer: Big Digits puts your current GPS speed at the center of the screen. Large, clear numbers make it easy to check your speed while keeping trip details close at hand. FOCUS ON YOUR SPEED See your current speed on a clean display that adapts to portrait and landscape. Open Trip details when you want to see distance, average speed, and elapsed time. MAKE IT YOURS Choose kilometers per hour or miles per hour, with distance in kilometers or miles. Switch between light and dark mode in Settings. Your preferences are saved automatically. KEEP YOUR TRIP GOING An active trip continues when you switch apps or lock your iPhone. Pause and resume when you need a break, or reset to begin again. Average speed includes time spent stopped during an active trip and excludes paused time. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, ads, or analytics. Location readings are processed on your iPhone and are not sent to our servers. Your current trip is kept in memory; trip history is not saved. GOOD TO KNOW Speedometer: Big Digits needs location permission and Precise Location for GPS measurements. Accuracy depends on signal and surroundings; readings may be unavailable indoors or with a weak signal. Force-quitting the app or the system ending its process stops tracking and clears the current trip. Continued GPS use can reduce battery life. Set up Speedometer: Big Digits before moving and use it only when safe. Requires iOS 18.0 or later.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Speedometer at none against Recently Followed's 10. Speedometer also leads on ads (none vs shown). Recently Followed's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price there is nothing between them.
