See MPH in Google Nav?

[marlon3]

is it possible to display your MPH while using the Nav? I wanna check on how accurate my speedo is on my Motorcycle and my bicyles.

 

[pyro6128]

not to my knowledge. I wish it showed mph too,

Maybe a future update will add this.

You should NOT be wearing a 'speedo' on a bike :rofl3:

Don't any of the suburbs around Seattle or any of the highways have those radar-speed displays (the one's that show you your speed in a rather useless effort to get you to slow down)?

Though I do miss the TomTom's speed 'warning' feature (i.e. if you entered a part of a highway that had a lower speed w/o realizing it the program would alert you with a loud tone.

+1 on needing this as a feature.

If they added this feature it would also give an accurate arrival to destination time.

My car has this thing already built into it called a speedometer. Works amazingly well.

The OP's vehicles do as well but you can't calibrate a device to itself.

Don't look at it too long kid, you'll blow 2 tires that way...

There are plenty of apps in the market that show you MPH, but you obviously can't have both Navigation and the app showing at the same time.

 

[brochaos]

my tracks works good for this...

I also wish it would show MPH. I miss that from my TomTom.

Another TomTom feature that I miss in Google Maps is toll road avoidance. That's huge.

I wish it had it too. Not necessary but cool to have especially since speedometers can become inacurate over time.

There are a few things I miss that I use regularly on my Garmin.

1. ETA - I hate the minutes to arrival
2. MPH
3. Being able to mark a point "anywhere"
4. Distance to destination

My GPS units have a "Data Screen" with a lot of cool info on time, distances, speed, etc. This would be a nice addition

There are a few more that I can't think of right now. They tend to come up when I am using it and I try to do something that I am used to doing on the Garmin.

I chalked it up to it being an app on a phone and not a standalone GPS. It has all the basic features and seems to work pretty well. However, if more options could be added, I would not complain.
