I am using this app for three years and it's been quite reliable and accurate. However, I am searching for this app on iOS. Could you kindly provide me with the IOS version?

A very good idea and a very good app. But please fix it. It catches speed limit of nearby roads and starts beeping for overspeed although im well below speed limit on my road. Its so annoying. Love everything about the app but cant use it if you dont fix the main functionality.

I have just paid for this app and still it won't show the road speed in the back ground... I have done all the settings correct and even set it to boot up when I even start the damm car but nothing!!! How do I get my money back as this is the 2nd one I've paid for today with none of them working also I have to keep toggling it on for it to work as it doesn't automatically start up when starting the car plus when it is finally working it keeps asking me to subscribe when I have already done so...
