Speed is a drop-dead simple speedometer for iOS that uses the location data from the GPS to provide a near-accurate representation of how fast youre actually traveling.

Featuring lush graphics and a clear, legible display. Speed has an inbuilt compass and odometer/tripmeter. With support for miles, kilometers and knots, Speed is the perfect road, sea or air speedometer.

Simply swipe the screen upwards or tap to reveal the settings pane.

NOTE:
As this works using the GPS, you will have to be moving at a certain minimum speed for it to register - walking or running generally wont work. An iPhone or iPad WiFi+Cellular with a GPS is required for this app; it will not work with a WiFi-only iPad.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

STUCK AT 0?
Verify that you have allowed location services for Speed in the Settings application. Also make sure you have good GPS coverage!

Verliert selbst im Cabrio ständig das GPS-Signal. Unbrauchbar!!!!

Nice. Needs portrait mode.

Good looking app, would be nice if it wasnt locked into landscape mode. Also could use directions ability on maps, instead of just displaying the map.

Awesome!

A glimpse into the future of car dashboards… Waiting for the iPhone app release!

Love the idea.

Features that should be included in the next version: *POI support; google search. *Motion X GPS support or some sort of GPS solution. *Foursquare/twitter options to tweet using voice dictation. *ipod control support

What happened

Im not sure what happened in between the last updates, but this app is almost unusable now. I had really high hopes for new features you said were coming but so far nothing. The speedo lags significantly behind my actual speed. The map looks like its having a hard time keeping up with my location and does not move smoothly but jerky every few seconds. The slide up from the bottom of the screen to reveal the settings has also become very sporadic and not responding to swipes and touches as one would expect. I dont have any GPS signal issues with any other GPS apps on my iPad. Apple maps, Google maps as well as Navigon all perform perfectly fine and I never have issues with any of those. This app used to work fine, but now something is seriously broken. I still have high hopes for this app but I wont hold my breath.

Busted

I agree with Liquidsmk. The app on my iPad mini is useless. All the same symptoms I too experience. Hopeful for next update.

Beautiful!

Gorgeously rendered with the rotatable map and 3d structures. Absolutely love it!
