Pitot is a GPS/GLONASS speedometer for your SailfishOS device. It will show you the speed of your device in big, friendly letters. It supports all orientations and has a bunch of different units to display the speed in.
Note that due to the inaccuracy of the builtin GPS receiver on the Jolla, the following problems may occur:
These are issues with the device's GPS receiver and/or QtPositioning implementation and cannot be fixed.
To run this app, you need a Sailfish OS version with Qt 5.2 (Uitukka or higher).

Thank you for answering. You was difficult to find. Where do we find the source code?

I found this app and am also interested in bringing it to aarch64. I installed it on an armv7 phone, located the source via the about page, and rebuilt it for aarch64. It is available here: https://openrepos.net/content/sharks/pitot-aarch64. I have not yet tested it to see if it works on my Xperia 10 IV, but will test it next time I am in the car.

Great, thanks for doing the legwork. :) If you intend to keep it updated, I can add a link from this app to that one.

I'm thinking I'll clone your repo and try to bring the app into the modern age over the coming days / weeks. I was intending on building my own speedometer app from scratch, but now I know this is still functional to some extent I'll work on updating it so long as you're happy for me to.

Sorry, but I don't have any of the build tooling to do that, and I haven't been using a Sailfish device for years. The code is open source, though, so someone else can pick it up and continue the project.

Wish list: an option to start/stop gps automatically when no other gps app is running.
