Your speed, on your windscreen.
A GPS speedometer built for the dashboard. The number fills the screen, turns red the moment you go over your limit, and mirrors so it reads correctly reflected in the glass at night.
Over the limit — the readout turns red and the sign pulses.
Four things, done properly.
No menus to dig through, no dashboard to configure. Set your limit, put the phone down, drive.
Windscreen mirror
Flips the display horizontally so the reflection in your windscreen reads the right way round. A real head-up display, with no hardware to buy.
Speed limit alert
Set your limit and the readout turns red while the sign pulses. Quick presets match the usual limits for your unit — one tap on the motorway.
Trip figures
Distance, duration, top speed, average speed, altitude and live GPS accuracy. Reset in one tap whenever you set off again.
km/h · mph · knots
Switch units instantly. Limits, distances and presets all follow, so the numbers always make sense wherever you are driving.
Free speedometers are not free.
Most of them fund a server you never asked for. This one has nothing to fund.
The free ones
- Full-screen ads while you are driving
- £4.99 a month to remove them
- An account, an email, a newsletter
- Location sent to an analytics provider
- Needs a connection to work properly
Speedometer HUD
- Bought once, for the price of a coffee
- No advertising of any kind, ever
- No account and no email address
- Nothing is uploaded, nothing is tracked
- Works in a tunnel, abroad, in flight mode
Your location never leaves the device.
The app asks for location because that is the only way iOS can report speed. That is where it ends.
- Read, used, discarded. Location is turned into a speed reading on the device and never written to a file.
- No history. No route is recorded, no trip is stored, nothing is kept after you close the app.
- No network. The app makes no requests at all — there is no server to send anything to.
- No SDKs. No analytics, no advertising, no crash reporter, no third-party code.
