Features & Capabilities

GPS Race Timer lets you measure acceleration times such as 0–60 mph, 60–120 mph, and 1/4 mile using only your iPhone's GPS — no extra hardware required. Timers start automatically when the target speed is reached or a start is detected, and everything can be configured while stationary.

Save runs locally, export data, and transfer to other devices. The app offers preset timers (60 ft, 1/8 mile, 1/4 mile, 1/2 mile, 1 mile, 0–60 mph, 0–120 mph, 50–75 mph, 60–120 mph, 0–100 km/h, 0–200 km/h, 80–120 km/h, 100–200 km/h). The free version supports up to two timers per run; a PRO in-app purchase unlocks up to four parallel timers, elevation precision, a Sportsman start, and ad-free usage.

User Reviews

GPS Race Timer is praised for its simple, user-friendly interface and its basic speed readouts, including 0-60 timing, which makes it suitable for casual car testing. However, many reviews report reliability problems: the timer often fails to start recording or shows blank results, and measurements can drift (0-60 timing off by roughly 0.8 seconds). Users also cite compatibility issues with newer iPhones/OS versions and bugs like a non-working reset. Overall, it's easy to use and handy for quick checks, but reliability and accuracy under real conditions are major concerns.
Pros
  • Easy to use with a simple interface.
  • Provides speed readings and 0-60 timing with current and top mph.
  • Casual-friendly and suitable for quick car testing rather than professional racing.
  • Offers customization options for different use cases.
  • Calculates speed and max feet.
Cons
  • Frequent failure to start recording or auto-start the timer.
  • 0-60 timing is off and measurements drift (e.g., ~0.8 seconds).
  • Compatibility issues on newer iPhones/OS versions.
  • Bugs like reset button not working and blank results (sometimes requires reinstall).
  • Reliability is inconsistent across runs; often unusable for multiple attempts.

I tried using my app on my iPhone SE, but can’t scroll down to one of the buttons at the bottom

The app is cool, it tracks speed and 0-60 and so on. I have an actual draggy and it said 3.8 0-60 on my draggy but on the APP it said 4.6 so whatever time you get subtract around 0.8 seconds. I know it’s hard to track a cars speed, especially a slow to quick speed through GPS and satellites so I give it props for giving me a close time but it’s a bit off and that’s fine.
