Needs a setting to auto-enable overlay when gps is in use ("GPS Status" does this)

I would pay for this. Google Maps should have a gps based speedometer. This app fixes that flaw perfectly.

Would be nice to be able to show the average speed, which could be reset
when the overlay is clicked

Hi, thanks for this really useful app. Could you add an option to display the coordinates in a nautical format, that is degrees°minutes.decimal minutes? The longitude degrees would always be 3 digits to distinguish more easily from latitude. Ex 55°10.556 N 014°45.745 E

So if I was to do a screen recording with my camera app in focus the overly is portrait and the camera app video is in landscape and the overlay looks stupid that way .developer has made a nice app w/ lots of features but not enough. Only allows the overly to be resized/hidden but not rotated. There needs to be a rotate button on the overlay or in the notification shade to flip the overlay right side up. So that's the dealbreaker. Too bad.

Does not work with Samsung Dex. The overlay only shows on the main phone screen, not the Dex screen.

This app is useless. My phone was plugged into the car charger and was 100%
battery. I turn this on and in half an hour it drained the battery to 80%,
and the phone was still plugged in!

Sitting still is 3.4mph It tells me that I am always moving at 3.4mph, even when sitting on my couch. Good GPS lock. Stock Note3 N900T.
★☆☆☆☆Edward Brackin· Sep 30, 2017
Doesn't work properly on Samsung S6 Active. As Soon As I start moving it jumps to 6 to 7 mph. At a steady 6.5 mph it displays 14.2 to 14.3. I really would like this App to work. FYI. I still use it for Pokémon Go bike riding.
