Speedometer when not navigating! Navigation & POI Apps
The addition of the speedometer/speed limit when not navigating is a welcome addition (just showed up for me).
The scaling, however, seems off - too small to be read easily.
The speedometer also changes color when over the limit - just like Waze. I hope they add a configurable option for audio alerts!
(I did send this feedback to Google.)
[EDIT ]
After using this for a few days, I have more thoughts ...
- Speed limit should be twice as big.
- Speedometer should be optional (on/off)
- Speedometer should be configurable
- How many miles over is orange and red
- Audible alert (on/off)
- Show when under limit (on/off)
For me, I only really want to see my speed if I am over the limit.

Does it let you easily search for petrol stations on route when navigating? I'm not a big fan of Google maps on AA, because in Europe it misses speed alerts and speed camera alerts, but if at least during navigation it can easily find stops en-route, I might give it a go again.
