SpeedBox was one of the very early Speedometer Apps for the iPhone. Take advantage of my experience and the refined algorithms that can get a much greater accuracy from the iPhone then a lot of other apps. I regularly update my application to make it even more accurate and usable.
Users have already used our application to verify the accuracy of their car's speedometer or they tried measuring the speed they achieved while skiing. Can you come up with more ideas? How about measuring the speed of the airplane you travel with?
USAGE NOTES
========================
The "GPS strength" indicator in the top left corner should display a green dot. You can tap this indicator to display the current GPS accuracy.
Please allow the application up to a minute to find enough satellites to work correctly.
If you get a message to enable GSP, please go to ”Settings > General > Location Services“ on your iPhone and check if the little switch is set to "On" for Speed Box as well as for "Location Services" in general.
ATTENTION iPod touch users! Unfortunately this app doesn't work very well on the iPod touch and the iPad WiFI (without 3G) since these devices are missing a GPS!

The speedometer in my current car reads lower than my actual speed. After researching this I have found out that many car manufacturers build speed error into the speedometer on purpose-not sure exactly why.
After using this app for awhile I have found the speed to be right on. I base this on comparing it to my wife's car speedo which is known to be accurate and to the "your speed is" signs we have here in Texas. Also the mileage is perfect almost to the tenth on known distances.
With the latest update you are now able to clear the cache of stored data, which in my book makes this app well worth the money.

Works great a lot cheaper than having to pay to have your instrument panel repaired or replaced because the factory speedometer in my GMC Sierra was not recalled until the extended warranty expired then it quit working Thanks GM
Awesome app
This app is everything it says it is. I love it. Very handy and a easy way to double check the cops. Officer: " sir,do u know how fast you were going?". Me: yes sir, 46 mph exactly. My iPhone is a gps speedometer.". Officer: " >:( have a nice day. Drive safely."
