So, I love Google maps. But I have LONG missed being able to see the posted speed limit and the current speed I am traveling displayed while using Google maps.
For this reason I would use a dedicated GPS in addition to google maps.
Well.. there is finally an Add-on app that will show you both the listed speed limit of the road you are riding on AND show your current speed. You can also set alerts for it to alert you (Kind of) when you are a set percentage above the speed limit.
The name of the app (available in the Google play store), is Velociraptor - Map Speed Limit
It works only when you have Google maps Navigating a route for you. Just opening Google maps will not activate it.
The speed appears on a little speed limit sign along with your current speed. You can move it around on your screen and put it wherever you want.
Just thought I would share the good news!
