Description
Just launched on the Android market, BluTorq Speedometer is a simple and elegant tool that allows you to accurately measure the speed and distance travelled using your Android device.
This application contains easy-to-read digital and analogue displays, as well as a graph that allows you to monitor your speed profile. Users are also able to switch between metric and imperial units at any time.
The following are key features of BluTorq Speedometer:
Digital display • Large, high contrast characters for maximum readability • Displays current speed, units, and GPS accuracy
Analogue display • Automatic scale adjustment based on screen size and speed to maximise usable dial area • Efficient algorithm that allows the needle to swing fluidly, just like dials in a real car! • Background that glows green during acceleration and red during braking
Speed Graph • Speed profile recorded for last 30 seconds with time stamps on the horizontal axis • First-order filter that smoothens out noise caused by irregularities in GPS signal strength
Speed and distance calculations are based on the latest WGS 84 standard, and geographic elevation was also taken into account for greater accuracy.
This is a simple application that is fun and easy to use. It is also 100% free, with NO annoying advertisements that could drain your mobile data usage. Why not give it a try!

Amazingly realistic analog operation! This is a fun and functional app and works good. The needle movement is smooth and fluidlike most of the time. I love the rescaling as you gain speed. Starts off 0-24 then jumps to 0-60 then when you get near 60, it jumps to 0-120MPH. Awesome! A couple of minor issues though: After it scales up, it won't return to the 0-24 scale after you come to a stop! It remains in the highest scale instead. I found a way to reset it. Turn the phone from vertical to landscape, or visa/versa. I wish it would just self reset. AND, a small compass rose of equiv would be nice to show direction. I do not understand how to read the GPS status numbers either. It's still a well designed app. (Sammy Galaxy Player 5.0)

Please keep it Simple I love the way the speedometer scale changes as you increase speed. Maybe it's my phone (Galaxy Note 2) but the scale does not come down as the speed slows. It stays at 0-120mph,it does not come back down through 0-60mph to 0-24mph. If you can fix that I'd be happy to pay for it. It is without doubt the best Speedo app apart from that little niggle. Only 4 stars I'm afraid but fix the scaling issue on slowdown and I would not consider using any other Speedo app and it would be a solid 5 star app.
★★☆☆☆
It's Ok, but... The scale doesn't reset/rescale when you slow down
