Beyond just a speedometer, Speed Overlay supports transparency adjustments, repositioning, color inversion, and shortcut toggling for seamless user control.

Best of all, it is fully free without advertisements, enhancing usability across diverse workflows and use cases.

User Reviews

Speed Overlay is a reliable and accurate GPS speedometer overlay app praised for its customization and simplicity. It integrates well with other apps and automation tools. Users appreciate the absence of ads and the responsive developers. Common issues include occasional overlay disappearance, GPS permission requirements, and lack of automatic start/stop linked to navigation apps. Some device-specific problems like incompatibility with Samsung Dex and battery saver restrictions affect functionality. Users desire more template color options and automated app behavior to enhance usability.

Pros

Accurate and reliable speed overlay that works well over navigation apps like Google Maps and Waze.
Highly customizable with features like custom templates, toggle widgets, and options to show additional GPS info such as elevation.
Ad-free and no subscription model, with responsive and helpful developer support.
Simple, easy to use, and integrates well with automation apps like Tasker.
Useful alternative to built-in speedometers and helpful in situations where the vehicle speedometer is broken or unavailable.

Cons

Occasional disappearance of the overlay requiring phone restart to fix.
'No GPS' error messages possibly due to location permission settings or power-saving restrictions, especially on certain devices like Samsung or Xiaomi.
No automatic start/stop feature linked with navigation apps, making manual activation somewhat cumbersome.
Does not support Samsung Dex properly; overlay only shows on the main phone screen, not on Dex screen.
Limited color customization in templates; users want more options like text and background color editing.
