GPS Dashboard is a tracking-first GPS speedometer and trip recorder for drivers, cyclists, hikers, and outdoor enthusiasts who want clear real-time insight into their movement. It combines a live map, speed readout, distance, altitude, and trip statistics in one clean interface that works in portrait and landscape.
Start a tracking session with one tap and watch your route appear on the dark map as you move. Pause and resume sessions when you stop, and finish when you are done to save the complete trip. Every saved trip includes distance, duration, average speed, maximum speed, altitude change, and route shape.
Key features:
• Live GPS speed, distance, altitude, and trip time
• Dark map view with your current position and recorded route
• Start, pause, resume, and stop tracking sessions
• Save and review trips with detailed statistics
• Customizable dashboard colors, units, and layout
• Phone status panel with time, GPS signal, and battery
• Portrait and landscape layouts with rotation and HUD flip
• Offline-friendly GPS tracking with background support
• Waypoints and route overlay tools
The dashboard shows current speed in large, readable numbers with units matched to your preference. Speed can be displayed with or without decimals for either precise or glanceable reading. Distance, altitude, and speed units support metric and imperial systems. The map follows your position and rotates with your heading for intuitive navigation. Route lines are drawn over the map while tracking is active and remain visible when reviewing.
Phone status information such as time, GPS signal quality, and battery level stays visible at the top. The tracking panel summarizes altitude, distance, average speed, and maximum speed during a session. Customize main and secondary colors to match your vehicle interior or personal style. Adjust indicator scale, decimal speed display, and map autoscale behavior in settings. Choose from multiple color schemes and preview them during onboarding.
The app can keep the screen on during tracking so you do not need to wake the device. Background tracking continues when you switch apps or lock the screen. GPS filtering helps smooth noisy readings for more stable speed values. The app works without an internet connection for core tracking and map caching. Dark map styling improves readability in low light and reduces glare at night. Landscape mode and HUD flip support different mounting positions in vehicles. Double tap to toggle full screen and hide system bars for an immersive view.
Rotation controls let you orient the dashboard exactly as needed. Side menu provides quick access to tracking history, routes, settings, and about. Route creation and editing tools help you plan paths before a trip. Waypoint messages allow you to annotate locations with titles and notes. Premium features gate advanced waypoint and route capabilities for power users. The app is built with Kotlin Multiplatform for consistent behavior across platforms.
Data is stored locally on your device for privacy and quick access. No account is required to track trips and review your history. Contact support through the provided email address listed in store settings. Regular updates improve stability, performance, and compatibility. Optimized for modern Android devices with adaptive icons and splash screen. The interface follows Material Design guidelines for familiarity and ease of use.
Permissions are requested only when needed for location and notifications. Location access powers speed calculation, tracking, and map positioning. Notification permission enables background tracking status updates. The onboarding flow guides you through units, time format, vehicle type, and theme. You can skip optional steps and configure them later in settings. Tracking history can be sorted and filtered for easy retrieval. Trip cards display key stats and open detailed views with maps and parameters.
