GPS Speedometer
Live GPS speed in your browser, no app, no sign-up
Wondering "how fast am I going?" GPS Speedometer shows your real time speed right in the browser. Open the page, tap allow, and you're driving. No download, no account, and your location never leaves your device. Works in MPH or KPH on any phone or laptop, using the same GPS your maps app reads. It even shows the gap between your car's dash and reality, since dashboards read 1 to 3 percent high on purpose. Prefer an app? The iOS companion adds trip recording, HUD mode and live maps.
Hi Product Hunt 👋
I kept glancing at my phone wondering how fast I was really going, and every answer meant installing yet another app full of ads and permissions. So I built the version I wanted: open the page, tap allow, and your live GPS speed is right there. No download, no account, and your location never leaves the device.
The fun part was the accuracy rabbit hole. Your car's dashboard reads 1 to 3 percent high on purpose (regulations forbid under reading), so GPS almost always shows you a bit slower than your dash. The web tool lets you see that gap for yourself.
It works in any browser in MPH or KPH. There's also an iOS app for people who want trip recording, a HUD mode and live maps, but the browser tool is completely free with nothing to sign up for.
Happy to answer anything about GPS speed accuracy, the Doppler math behind it, or how it's built. What would you want a speedometer to do that yours doesn't?
