WHAT'S INSIDE β€” EVERYTHING, FREE - Real-time GPS speed in km/h, mph, knots, or m/s - Three display modes: Digital, Analog, and Map - HUD mode that mirrors your speed on the windshield - Unlimited trip recording with full route playback - Lifetime stats: distance, top speeds, personal bests - Sprint timer (0–60, 0–100, custom ranges) - G-force tracking with calibration - 12 activity profiles: car, motorbike, cycling, running, skiing, more - Speed-limit alerts with voice readout - Lock Screen and Home Screen widgets - Live Activity for ongoing trips - Siri Shortcuts integration - Export trips as GPX, CSV, or JSON PRIVACY FIRST No accounts. No analytics. No tracking. No third-party SDKs. Everything stays on your device. We can't see how you use the app β€” by design. WHY THIS APP EXISTS Speedometer apps are notorious for paywalling basic features. HUD mode? Subscription. Trip history beyond 5 trips? Subscription. Different unit? Subscription. A simple speed display should not cost $30 a year. Pocket Speedometer ships every feature on day one, free, with no plans to ever paywall anything. Built by one developer who got tired of the upsells. β€” No subscription. No ads. Forever.
