User Reviews

Users praise the app for displaying speed limits on Google Maps with overspeed alerts and find it very helpful for drivers, especially when it works. However, multiple reviews highlight data inaccuracies and slow updates, unreliable auto-start/background operation (notably with Android Auto), a costly subscription, battery drain from location services, and limited compatibility with Android Auto/Waze. Overall, usefulness is high when functioning, but reliability and value are common concerns.

Pros

Displays real-time speed limits on top of Google Maps as a widget with audible alerts when exceeding the limit
Very accurate speed limit data when the feature is working, making it highly reliable
Very helpful for professional drivers (taxi/Uber) in avoiding speeding and improving safety

Cons

Speed limit data is often inaccurate or not updated in a timely manner (missing or wrong limits)
Auto-start/background operation is unreliable, with frequent failures to start automatically, including Android Auto integration
High subscription cost and perceived low value due to reliability issues
Significant battery drain and heavy use of location permissions
Limited Android Auto/Waze support and compatibility; best experience is with Google Maps

Recent reviews

it was great. since this morning (after phone update) starting based on Bluetooth connection doesn't work. it starts only with selecting apps. all permission are granted. this is bad since it was nice to enter the car and have it ready to advise you even without starting the navigation...please fix it!

Seems to be working well and offers good configuration options. works well with Android Auto and both Waze and Maps. One welcome improvement would be to offer the the UK 10%+2MPH threshold as a warning limit.
