About this app

Maps Speed Limits shows the current speed limit as an overlay on top of any app, and can warn you when you're speeding. It automatically detects when a selected app is active and displays a clean, customizable speed limit indicator.

FEATURES:
- Smart caching: the only app that stores small map areas locally for faster updates and reduced data usage;
- Speeding alert: Get notified when you're over the limit;
- No ads;
- Automatically appears only when one of your chosen apps is in use;
- Show or hide the overlay based on Bluetooth connection status (e.g. when entering your car);
- Switch between kilometers or miles per hour;
- Tap to hide the overlay for 10 seconds;
- Change the size, transparency, and on-screen position. Just drag it where you want it;
- Works with any app;

Please note that an internet connection is required to get the speed limits from our server.

Ratings and reviews

App does a really good job doing what it's suppose to do. I've tried 3 or 4 others and this is the most accurate. That said it does have its draw backs. Biggest is you better have a good charger because it will struggle to keep up its a battery hog! Second I wish it had the option to only come on with certain apps in stead of having to manually select it to activate it.

paid for maps speed limits and app hasn't worked correctly since day one, won't start automatically as it's supposed to, have emailed there support four times and they have not responded. If it is not going to work I think I should have a refund of my subscription.

The app itself is very nice. What is not ok is the data about the speed limits. The limit shown is in more than 30% missing or - even worth - simply wrong. You need to fix this!
