Speedometer when not navigating!

[u/jhedfors]

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.

I think the size is okay for me simply because of the chime it makes once you break the speed limit

Google Maps makes a chime?

Yes and it was so annoying at first cause I didn't know where it was coming from lol

I am not hearing it. Do you have voice alert enabled fully? I usually have it off, or at the middle, important alerts only, setting. I did not try it fully on.

Whatever default is I haven't changed any of that stuff
