About this app

NavMeter allows you to display speed, altitude, compass, and coordinates indicator over the navigators that don’t provide this informations.


HOW TO START
Open NavMeter and enable auto activation. Then open Maps and start the navigator: the speedometer will appear; drag it wherever you like with your finger. Tap it quickly if you want to make it disappear for few seconds.
Every time you will start the navigator, the speedometer will appear where you placed it.
If you don’t want it to appear anymore, just disable auto activation.


MULTIPURPOSE NOTIFICATION
When the indicators are active, a notification appears. You can toggle between day and night mode and hide indicators from that. If indicators had been activated manually, you can also switch them off.


CUSTOMIZE THE INDICATORS
Indicators are fully customizable: you can edit color, dimensions, shape and transparency. You can choose the unit of measurements you prefer and you can decide if display them or not.


ACTIVATE WITH OTHER APPS
By default, Indicators are activated automatically only with Maps navigator. You can activate them with any application simply going to Settings and selecting “Other apps”.


HUD
NavMeter features a HUD also that you can activate from menu. Open it and place your device under the windshield: speed, time, altitude and compass will be reflected in it (it works when it’s dark).


TASKER PLUGIN
NavMeter features a Tasker plugin which provides some actions to enable and disable auto actvation and indicators and to change night-day mode.
