DigiHUD Pro Speedometer is a heads-up display application designed for mobile devices, offering real-time vehicle speed information. It presents speed data clearly on the screen’s edge, allowing drivers to keep their eyes on the road and maintain focus. This app is ideal for drivers seeking a convenient, glanceable way to monitor their speed without diverting attention from the primary driving task.

Its key value lies in enhancing driver focus and awareness by presenting crucial speed information without requiring the driver to look down or at a separate gauge. The DigiHUD Pro Speedometer provides a modern, customizable interface suitable for various driving conditions and personal preferences, making speed monitoring safer and more accessible.

App Features

Real-time Speed Display: The core function provides an instantaneous, accurate reading of both speed and odometer data precisely where the driver needs it, directly within their field of vision. This eliminates the need to divert gaze to a dashboard cluster or a side-mounted gauge, promoting safer driving habits.
Customizable HUD Layout & Appearance: Users have granular control over the placement, style, color scheme, font size, and units displayed for the information, along with a persistent on-screen overlay option. This flexibility allows drivers to tailor the interface specifically to their device’s resolution and personal visual preferences, ensuring maximum usability.
Dual Speed & Odometer Readouts: The app simultaneously displays instantaneous speed along with accumulated journey and total mileage figures, providing a comprehensive view of the vehicle’s performance and history. This combination helps drivers track fuel efficiency and overall vehicle usage without needing to switch views or consult separate instruments.
GPS Integration for Distance Tracking: Leveraging the phone’s GPS, DigiHUD can calculate and display the precise distance traveled during a trip, resetting options available for different journeys. Key benefits include accurate trip logging for navigation or workout tracking purposes.
Performance Monitoring with Odometer Tracking: Beyond simple speed display, the app meticulously tracks and stores odometer readings, distinguishing between trip and total mileage, which is essential for vehicle maintenance scheduling and tracking wear and tear. This feature is particularly valuable for long-term ownership and careful mileage record-keeping.
Background Operation with Battery Efficiency: Users can configure the app to run discreetly in the background while actively monitoring speed and distance, minimizing disruption and ensuring uninterrupted data collection. This capability supports longer trips and continuous usage without demanding frequent attention.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does DigiHUD Pro require an internet connection to function?

A: No, DigiHUD Pro operates entirely locally on your phone’s CPU and sensors (GPS, accelerometer, etc.). It does not need internet access to display speed or odometer readings.

Q: Which vehicles or cars is the DigiHUD Pro Speedometer compatible with?

A: DigiHUD Pro is designed to work with virtually any vehicle equipped with a standard speed sensor (most modern cars, motorcycles, trucks, and even bicycles with wheel speed sensors) as long as your phone has compatible sensors (primarily GPS). It doesn’t interface directly with OBD-II port data.

Q: Can I use DigiHUD Pro while my phone is in my pocket or bag?

A: Yes. Once set up, DigiHUD Pro can run discreetly in the background using your phone’s sensors, and the heads-up display remains visible on the screen even if you are not actively interacting with the app.

Q: How accurate is the speed measurement compared to my car’s dashboard?

A: The accuracy primarily relies on your phone’s GPS and potentially the phone’s internal sensors (like the accelerometer for wheel-based calculations). GPS accuracy can be influenced by signal availability. Generally, it provides a good estimate for most purposes; however, dedicated automotive sensors in your vehicle are typically the most accurate source.

Q: Does the app work while the phone is in a car mount facing forwards?

A: Definitely yes! The DigiHUD interface is designed specifically to be viewed from the driver’s perspective, so positioning the phone upright in a dashboard cradle or mount works perfectly well for displaying the speed information.
