How Bus Speedometer works
How it measures bus speed
It reads your phone's GPS position and works out speed from how far the bus travels over time. Because it uses satellite positioning rather than the vehicle's systems, any passenger can use it from their seat — just keep near a window for the best signal.
Tips
- Sit near a window so GPS has a clearer view of the sky.
- Press Start at the beginning of the journey and allow location access.
- The accuracy figure tells you how strong the signal is.
Curious how far you travelled? Use the GPS odometer.
