Will this work on a city bus or a long-distance coach?

Both — it reads GPS speed from your phone regardless of vehicle type, so it works the same on a city bus, a coach, or any other road vehicle.

Does sitting near a window matter?

It can help. GPS needs a view of the sky, and a window seat generally gives a clearer signal than being surrounded by metal in the middle of the bus.

Can I track distance for the whole trip?

Yes — distance, max speed, and average speed are all tracked for your current session, not just the live reading.

Track your journey's speed

Start tracking when you board and watch your live speed update as the bus moves. The stats below show your max speed, average speed, and distance for the trip — a simple way to see how your journey is going.

For the clearest signal, keep your phone near a window rather than deep inside the bus.
