How accurate is a GPS speed tracker?

Accuracy depends on your phone, GPS reception and conditions. A clear view of the sky helps; tunnels, buildings and weak signals can affect readings. There is no single accuracy figure for every drive.

Open Road

The speed tracker built for drivers

Open Road is a GPS speed tracker for iPhone and Android that shows your live speed and saves your top speed with each recorded drive. The route, time and distance stay with it in your drive log.

Open Road saved drive showing its route, distance, time and top speed — A recorded drive with its top speed and route together.

Track top speed with the whole drive

If you want an app to track your top speed while driving, Open Road keeps it as part of the drive. After you park, open the drive in your log to review the top speed alongside the route, time and distance. It is a record of that drive, rather than a number that disappears when you close a speed display.

Live GPS speed in mph or km/h

Open Road uses your phone GPS to show speed while you drive. Choose mph or km/h for the units you use. GPS readings depend on signal and conditions; tunnels, tall buildings and poor reception can affect them. Set up the app before leaving and review the drive after you park.

Need a quick speed check?

The free online speedometer shows current speed, session top speed and distance in your browser, with no download. Keep that tab open for the session. Choose the app when you want automatic drive recording and a route saved to your drive log.

Your speed is one part of your drive

Each recorded road joins your map of roads driven. The same app also keeps your driving history and lets you drive with friends. Top speed is there to review your drive. Keep to the speed limit.
