I built Steply, a walking tracker with GPS route playback, walking heart rate, and analytics that actually explain your habits

The problem (A)
Apple Health quietly logs your steps every day. But open it, and you get a number. No idea when you're most active, where you walked, how your heart responded to the effort, or whether you're trending up or down. Most pedometer apps don't go much deeper; they re-display the same number with a ring around it.

So the data sits there doing nothing for your habits.

Why Steply is different/better (B)
I'm a solo iOS dev and built Steply to be the layer of insight that step counting was always missing:

  • Live GPS route tracking + playback: Watch your walking route unfold in real time, then replay any past walk with pace, distance, and a heart rate zone view along the route (See which heart rate zone you were in at any point on your route)
  • Walking heart rate monitoring: Real-time BPM during walks, average heart rate, and calorie burn calculated from actual effort instead of guesswork.
  • Analytics that explain your habits: Hourly heatmaps, a 24-hour activity clock showing when you move most, step velocity trends, weekly wave charts, and a percentile ranking based on WHO/NIH population data (find out if you're top 20% or "getting started")
  • BMI + weight loss projections: See exactly how many days of walking it takes to reach your target weight, with calorie math based on your step goal
  • Japanese Walking: Guided interval sessions (For example: the 3-min fast / 3-min slow protocol), on iPhone and Apple Watch
  • Goals & streaks: Custom daily targets, streak counter with celebrations, achievement badges, weekly challenges
  • Widgets everywhere: Home screen, lock screen, Live Activity on Dynamic Island, plus an Apple Watch app with complications

And privacy is non-negotiable: all data stays on your device. No account, no signup, no ads, no tracking.

Cost (C)

  • Core step tracking, goals, streaks, and widgets are free
  • Premium unlocks the full GPS + analytics suite: $2.99/mo, $9.99/yr, or $19.99 lifetime (one-time purchase)

Toward the Ultimate Driving Companion: A Reimagined CarPlay Experience and Richer Telemetry

Hello everyone,
After many rounds of refinement and user feedback, the CarPlay experience in Speedometer: Driving Tracker has taken a big leap forward - faster, cleaner, and far more useful for everyday driving.

The app now offers a much more capable experience across both iPhone and CarPlay, with richer telemetry, deeper vehicle insights, and improvements throughout.

CarPlay
• Track trips directly from your car's screen
• Live dashboards with speed, trip stats, maps, and OBD-II data
• Customizable tabs, layouts, and startup screens
• Access trips, saved places, vehicle data, and more without touching your phone

Driving Analytics & Telemetry
• Route replay with speed and elevation visualizations
• Channel Replay for Speed, RPM, Throttle, Engine Load, Boost, G-Force, and Elevation
• Post-drive OBD-II summaries and vehicle analytics
• Driving records, statistics, achievements, and trip insights
• Acceleration testing including 0-60, 0-100, and custom sprint tests

OBD-II & Vehicle Insights
• Live RPM, temperatures, fuel data, battery voltage, throttle position, MAF, and more
• Diagnostics, fault codes, VIN detection, and automatic vehicle matching
• Vehicle profiles with lifetime statistics, health insights, and ownership history
• Works with a wide range of Bluetooth OBD-II adapters

Ownership & Automation
• Automatic trip recording and Shortcuts integration
• Fuel, maintenance, expense, and document tracking
• Multi-vehicle support with comparisons and analytics
• GPX import/export, backups, and iCloud sync
• iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and CarPlay support

The app has evolved quite a bit from its original speedometer roots. My goal is to build something that helps you not only track where you drove, but also understand your vehicle, manage ownership, and revisit drives in a much more meaningful way.

The goal remains the same: build the ultimate driving companion app.

I would love feedback on the new CarPlay experience, telemetry features, and anything else you'd like to see next!

Toward the Ultimate Driving and Riding Companion: A Reimagined CarPlay Experience

I originally built this as a simple speedometer. Every feature since then has been inspired by a real problem, either one I encountered or one suggested by this community. Today, it's evolved into a complete driving companion.

A - Answer

• Want a speedometer, but also wish it could record every drive and let you replay your routes later?
- Answered!

• Want a driving or motorcycle riding tracker with fuel logs, maintenance, expenses, documents, backups, and a privacy-first design?
- Answered.

• Found a great driving tracker, but it becomes almost useless once you connect to CarPlay?
- Answered with a full-featured CarPlay app!

• Want every drive to be recorded automatically, but don't want to grant "Always" location permission?
- Answered with Shortcuts automations. They work great with CarPlay and are battery-friendly!

• Want to measure 0-60, 0-100, quarter mile, or custom sprint times without doing the math yourself?
- Answered.

• Want useful OBD-II data like RPM, engine load, boost, temperatures, battery voltage, throttle position, fuel data, and fault codes - and also review their history after your drive or even on CarPlay?
- Answered.

• Own multiple cars or motorcycles?
- Keep separate trips, fuel, maintenance, expenses, documents, and analytics for each one.

• Wish you could relive an amazing drive instead of looking at a plain line on a map?
- Replay your route with Speed, Elevation, RPM, Engine Load, Throttle, Boost, G-Force, and more.

• Don't want to keep looking at your phone while driving?
- Check your speed and trip progress from your Apple Watch with Live Activity.

• Need a bigger screen to review your drives or vehicle data?
- Everything syncs automatically to iPad and Mac with iCloud.

• Need to share your trips on social media or generate mileage, fuel, maintenance, or expense reports?
- Answered.

B - Better
Instead of using one app for a speedometer, another for OBD, another for trip recording, another for fuel tracking, and then losing most of it when you connect to CarPlay…

I built one app that brings everything together.

Whether you're commuting, road-tripping, riding a motorcycle, tracking business mileage, or simply enjoy understanding your vehicle better, Speedometer: Driving Tracker keeps everything in one place across iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, Mac, and CarPlay.

The goal isn't just to record where you drove.

It’s to make every drive or ride more useful, more insightful, and a lot more fun.

C - Pricing

Most core features are completely free, including Trip recording: CarPlay, Live OBD-II data, Automatic trip recording with Siri Shortcuts, Backups, and iCloud sync.

Premium unlocks advanced analytics and deeper insights:

  • $7.99/month
  • $19.99/year
  • $39.99 lifetime (one-time purchase)

Finally, thank you to everyone! This app wouldn't be where it is today without your support. Your bug reports, feature requests, testing, and constructive feedback have directly shaped many of the features in the app, and I'm genuinely grateful for every suggestion.

I'd love to hear what you think about the latest CarPlay experience and what you’d like to see next.

Has anyone here successfully received Apple App Store developer payouts directly to a Wise USD account?

My Apple Developer account is registered in Bangladesh, and Wise provides a USD account with an account number and ABA routing number. I'm wondering if Apple accepts Wise for App Store payments and whether there are any issues with verification, payout delays, or rejected bank details.

Thanks!

What if every driver had access to telemetry, not just racers?

In the recent version of the Speedometer: Driving Tracker app, I wanted to answer a different question:
What was my car doing at that exact moment during a trip?

The latest update adds Channel Replay, which synchronizes speed, RPM, throttle position, engine load, absolute load, boost, G-force, elevation, and other OBD-II channels on a shared timeline.

Scrub through a trip, and every channel moves together.

You can see:
• What RPM you were at when reaching top speed
• How much throttle was used during an acceleration run
• How hard the engine was working during a climb
• How boost, load, and RPM changed throughout a drive
• Per-second charts for RPM, throttle, engine load, and absolute load
• A new dashboard with synchronized gauges and telemetry playback

It's telemetry for everyday drivers!

Other Capabilities
Beyond telemetry replay, the app also includes:
• CarPlay support
• OBD-II diagnostics and vehicle analytics
• Real-time RPM, throttle, engine load, temperatures, battery voltage, MAF, fuel data, and more
• Automatic trip recording and vehicle detection
• 3D route playback
• Speed-colored route replay
• Acceleration testing (0-60, 0-100, custom sprint tests)
• Fuel tracking and fuel economy analytics
• Maintenance and service tracking
• Vehicle document reminders
• Expense tracking
• Vehicle-based analytics and comparisons
• Weekly, monthly, yearly, and custom driving statistics
• GPX import/export
• iCloud sync across Apple devices
• iPhone, CarPlay, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch support
• Privacy-first experience (no ads, no tracking SDKs, no sign-up required)

Built for all kinds of drivers
Whether you're a casual driver who just wants a speedometer, a road trip enthusiast, a CarPlay user, or someone connecting an OBD-II adapter for deeper vehicle insights, the app is designed to work for you.

CarPlay, OBD-II, telemetry, diagnostics, fuel tracking, and other advanced features are all optional additions - nothing is required to use the app!

I'd love feedback from fellow car enthusiasts. Any feedback, bug reports, or feature suggestions are highly appreciated - they help shape the app and guide future development.

Finally added automatic trip detection, VIN-based vehicle matching, and customizable CarPlay dashboards to Speedometer: Driving Tracker

Hello everyone,
Most trip-tracking apps still require you to remember to start and stop recording manually. And if you drive multiple vehicles, it's easy to forget to switch to the correct vehicle before a drive.

I wanted to solve that problem.
The latest update to Speedometer: Driving Tracker focuses on making trip recording and vehicle detection as automatic as possible.

• Automatic trip detection when driving starts
• Automatic trip end after a configurable idle period
• Start/stop trips automatically through CarPlay
• Start/stop trips automatically through Bluetooth devices
• Siri Shortcuts and automation support
• VIN-based vehicle matching through OBD2
• Improved OBD2 connection stability and automatic reconnection

Most apps focus on either speed tracking, OBD2 data, fuel tracking, or route recording. I wanted to combine everything into a single driving companion that works across CarPlay, iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch.

The goal isn't just showing live gauges while driving. It’s helping you understand and revisit your driving history later.

Some features currently available:
• CarPlay support
• OBD2 vehicle analytics and diagnostics
• Real-time RPM, engine load, throttle, fuel, coolant, oil temperature, battery voltage, MAF, intake air temperature, and more
• Post-drive OBD2 summaries and vehicle analytics
• Customizable CarPlay dashboards
• New CarPlay grid layout
3D route playback
• Speed-colored trip replay
• Route playback with trip statistics
• Video recording with speed overlays
• Acceleration testing (0–60, 0–100, custom sprint tests)
• Fuel tracking and fuel economy analytics
• Maintenance and service tracking
• Vehicle document management and reminders
Expense tracking
• Vehicle-based analytics and comparisons
• Driving records and achievements
• Weekly, monthly, yearly, and custom driving statistics
• GPX import/export
• CSV exports
• iCloud sync across Apple devices
• iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and CarPlay support
• Privacy-first experience (no ads, no tracking SDKs, no sign-up required)

I got a huge response from many drivers, including Uber drivers, so I'm posting it here in case you find it interesting and useful.

Please let me know if you have any feature ideas, run into any issues, or have any other feedback. I'm continuously working to make this the most reliable driving companion app!

Real-time OBD2 Analytics Like Engine Load & Throttle are now on iOS & CarPlay - Plus Post Trip Analysis

Hello everyone,
I've been building an app Speedometer: Driving Tracker, a CarPlay-supported driving tracker focused on trip history, analytics, and the overall driving experience across Apple devices.

Recently, I added real-time OBD2 analytics support after many users requested deeper vehicle insights.

You can now view live OBD2 data directly on CarPlay, iPhone, iPad, Mac, and even Apple Watch (via Live Activity).

Some supported data includes:
• Engine Load
• RPM
• Throttle Position
• Fuel Usage
• Coolant & Oil Temperature
• Mass Air Flow
• Intake/Ambient Air Temperature
• And more

What I personally found most interesting during testing was being able to review how different driving styles affected engine behavior across an entire trip, not just while looking at live gauges.

The app also supports automatic trip recording using Siri Shortcuts automations when your OBD2 device connects.

One important thing:
Every car exposes different OBD2 sensors, so available data can vary depending on the vehicle and adapter.

Beyond OBD2, the app also includes:
• CarPlay trip tracking
• 3D route playback
• Speed-colored trip replay
• Video recording with speed + map overlays
• Fuel, maintenance, and expense tracking
• Vehicle-based analytics & comparisons
• iCloud sync across Apple devices
• Privacy-first experience (no ads, no tracking, no signup)

The goal was never just to make another speedometer or gauge app, but to create a more complete driving companion ecosystem for drivers.

Honestly, this creates a very unique experience for car enthusiasts, especially CarPlay users, because very few apps go through this level of integration and approval process.

I'm continuously trying to make this app better and serve a broad category of users.

Finally added automatic trip detection, VIN-based vehicle matching, and customizable CarPlay dashboards to Speedometer: Driving Tracker

Hey everyone,
One of the most requested features was fully automatic trip recording (along with shortcut automation) and automatic vehicle detection, so I implemented them as reliably as possible in Speedometer: Driving Tracker.

You can now automate trip recording in several ways:
• Start/stop trips automatically when CarPlay connects/disconnects
• Start/stop trips automatically when a Bluetooth device connects/disconnects
• Automatic trip detection when driving starts
• Automatic trip end after a configurable idle period
• Siri Shortcuts and other automations support

I also added VIN-based vehicle matching through OBD2. If your OBD2 adapter reports a VIN that matches one of your saved vehicles, trips can now automatically attach to the correct vehicle. No more forgetting to switch vehicles before driving. And improved OBD2 connection stability and automatic reconnection.

Other notable additions in this update:
• Per-source default vehicles (CarPlay / Bluetooth, in addition to OBD2)
• More customizable CarPlay dashboards
• New grid layout for CarPlay (finally brought back the grid design, but this time it's very optimized!)
• Customizable trip detail sections
• Customizable speedometer stats
• New Live Activity presets, including OBD-focused layouts
• Expanded OBD2 support and diagnostics
• Better trip filtering, sorting, and organization
• Improved PDF exports and statistics screens

The app has evolved quite a bit from its original speedometer roots. Some existing features include:

• CarPlay support
• OBD2 vehicle analytics and diagnostics
• Real-time RPM, engine load, throttle, fuel, coolant, oil temperature, battery voltage, MAF, intake air temperature, and more
• Post-drive OBD2 summaries and vehicle analytics
• 3D route playback
• Speed-colored trip replay
• Route playback with trip statistics
• Video recording with speed overlay
• Acceleration testing (0–60, 0–100, custom sprint tests)

Finally added automatic trip detection, VIN-based vehicle matching, and customizable CarPlay dashboards to Speedometer: Driving Tracker

Hey everyone,
One of the most requested features was fully automatic trip recording (along with shortcut automation) and automatic vehicle detection, so I implemented them as reliably as possible in Speedometer: Driving Tracker.

You can now automate trip recording in several ways:
• Start/stop trips automatically when CarPlay connects/disconnects
• Start/stop trips automatically when a Bluetooth device connects/disconnects
• Automatic trip detection when driving starts
• Automatic trip end after a configurable idle period
• Siri Shortcuts and other automations support

I also added VIN-based vehicle matching through OBD2. If your OBD2 adapter reports a VIN that matches one of your saved vehicles, trips can now automatically attach to the correct vehicle. No more forgetting to switch vehicles before driving. And improved OBD2 connection stability and automatic reconnection.

Other notable additions in this update:
• Per-source default vehicles (CarPlay / Bluetooth, in addition to OBD2)
• More customizable CarPlay dashboards
• New grid layout for CarPlay (finally brought back the grid design, but this time it's very optimized!)
• Customizable trip detail sections
• Customizable speedometer stats
• New Live Activity presets, including OBD-focused layouts
• Expanded OBD2 support and diagnostics
• Better trip filtering, sorting, and organization
• Improved PDF exports and statistics screens

The app has evolved quite a bit from its original speedometer roots. Some existing features include:

• CarPlay support
• OBD2 vehicle analytics and diagnostics
• Real-time RPM, engine load, throttle, fuel, coolant, oil temperature, battery voltage, MAF, intake air temperature, and more
• Post-drive OBD2 summaries and vehicle analytics
• 3D route playback
• Speed-colored trip replay
• Route playback with trip statistics
• Video recording with speed overlay
• Acceleration testing (0–60, 0–100, custom sprint tests)
• Fuel tracking and fuel economy analytics
• Maintenance and service tracking
• Vehicle document management and reminders
• Expense tracking
• Vehicle-based analytics and comparisons
• Driving records and achievements
• Weekly, monthly, yearly, and custom driving statistics
• GPX import/export
• CSV exports
• iCloud sync across Apple devices
• iPad, Mac, Apple Watch support
• Privacy-first experience (no ads, no tracking SDKs, no sign-up required)

I'm continuously trying to make this app better and serve a broad category of users.
As a token of appreciation, I'm offering a 50% lifetime discount for the community.

Finally added automatic trip detection, VIN-based vehicle matching, and customizable CarPlay dashboards to Speedometer: Driving Tracker

Hello everyone,

A - Problem
Most trip-tracking apps still require you to remember to start and stop recording manually. And if you drive multiple vehicles, it's easy to forget to switch to the correct vehicle before a drive.

I wanted to solve that problem.
The latest update to Speedometer: Driving Tracker focuses on making trip recording and vehicle detection as automatic as possible.

• Automatic trip detection when driving starts
• Automatic trip end after a configurable idle period
• Start/stop trips automatically through CarPlay
• Start/stop trips automatically through Bluetooth devices
• Siri Shortcuts and automation support
• VIN-based vehicle matching through OBD2
• Improved OBD2 connection stability and automatic reconnection

B - Better
Most apps focus on either speed tracking, OBD2 data, fuel tracking, or route recording. I wanted to combine everything into a single driving companion that works across CarPlay, iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch.

The goal isn't just showing live gauges while driving. It’s helping you understand and revisit your driving history later.

Some features currently available:
• CarPlay support
• OBD2 vehicle analytics and diagnostics
• Real-time RPM, engine load, throttle, fuel, coolant, oil temperature, battery voltage, MAF, intake air temperature, and more
• Post-drive OBD2 summaries and vehicle analytics
• Customizable CarPlay dashboards
• New CarPlay grid layout
• 3D route playback
• Speed-colored trip replay
• Route playback with trip statistics
• Video recording with speed overlays
• Acceleration testing (0–60, 0–100, custom sprint tests)
• Fuel tracking and fuel economy analytics
• Maintenance and service tracking
• Vehicle document management and reminders
• Expense tracking
• Vehicle-based analytics and comparisons
• Driving records and achievements
• Weekly, monthly, yearly, and custom driving statistics
• GPX import/export
• CSV exports
• iCloud sync across Apple devices
• iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and CarPlay support
• Privacy-first experience (no ads, no tracking SDKs, no sign-up required)

I'd love feedback from fellow car enthusiasts on what data, analytics, or visualizations you'd like to see next.

C - Cost
$9.99/month, $19.99/year, $39.99 lifetime (one-time purchase)
