Review summary

Users appreciate SpeedView for its accuracy, simplicity, and ad-free experience. It effectively serves as a GPS speedometer and offers a smooth, user-friendly interface. However, common complaints include the app defaulting to mph without saving unit preferences, missing features like altitude and compass, occasional crashes triggered by volume buttons, unexpected permission requests, and delayed GPS signal acquisition.

Cons

Crashes when pressing volume buttons in some cases
Requests access to photos and media without clear justification
Sometimes fails to find GPS signal quickly

2023-06-10	Ja*****	Would be 5 stars, if the app could remember the unit choice. It defaults to mph and I need to change it back to kph each time I start the app.
