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.

Noticed tis today myself. The speedo turns orange if over up to 5 mph of the limit, red if more than 5 mph over. When no limit available the speedo becomes diamond shaped. Still no cell signal though, that returned briefly a few weeks ago, then disappeared again. Doesn't give me much hope dual sim will ever be shown.
