We often engage in outdoor activities such as running, cycling, driving cars, and even traveling by train, ship, and airplane. I often care about the routes I have taken and frequently desire to know the speed and altitude changes during the process. However, obtaining such information is usually challenging. Now, we have created a handy tool that effortlessly achieves the aforementioned functionalities. It not only facilitates the realization of these features but also provides additional information, including changes in air pressure. During usage, you can simply glance at it to view your real-time speed, making everything feel natural and effortless. Instead of us telling you about it, why not give it a try and download it? Here are the key features: - Intuitive speedometer, including current speed, total distance, altitude, direction, and more. - Multiple speed tracking options, including walking, cycling, driving, boating, taking the train, and flying. - Rich data, including duration, average speed, maximum speed, altitude, and air pressure. - Speed alerts, automatic trip start, automatic trip pause, and more. - Map location and speed trajectory, speed and altitude charts. - Multiple unit conversions, including kilometers per hour, miles per hour, and knots. - Data synchronization across multiple devices with iCloud (all data is stored locally or in your iCloud and not transmitted elsewhere). You can use it for free, but we also offer enhanced features for users who need them, which can be purchased through a one-time payment or subscription. Regarding subscriptions: - Cancel anytime. - Once confirmed, payment will be charged to your Apple ID account. - Subscriptions will automatically renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. - Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours before the current period ends. - You can manage and cancel subscriptions through your App Store account settings after the purchase. Usage notes: - The app requires location permission and good GPS signal to function correctly, as GPS signals are generally weaker indoors, especially underground. - Wi-Fi-only iPads or iPod Touch devices usually do not have GPS modules, so they may not function properly. - GPS signal positioning has inherent inaccuracies, and the app displays signal accuracy. Therefore, the data may have some margin of error. - During usage, please avoid constantly staring at the app and instead focus on the road ahead for safety.

SpeedTracker holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 8 and 3 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Speedometer 2's written reviews are positive against 92% of SpeedTracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
