MapCar shows the speed limit of the road you are on and says so out loud before you go over it. Use it on an iPhone in a cradle, or right on your car's screen through CarPlay. WHAT YOU SEE WHILE DRIVING • A speed limit sign drawn like the real one • A big speedometer that changes colour once you are over • A map that follows the car and turns with your heading • The road you are on, plus lights, signs, petrol stations, chargers ahead • Jams reported by other cars on MapCar • Trip distance, time, average and top speed Lock the phone or switch apps mid-trip: your speed and next sign stay on the lock screen, Dynamic Island and Apple Watch.

Every shipping app on the App Store has gone through the same decisions you're working through right now: which screenshot goes first, what caption sits over it, which device frame to show, what color the background should be. The 15 screenshots above are MapCar – Speed Limit Alerts's answers to those questions — they're public, they're real, and they made it through Apple's review.
What the numbers say: MapCar – Speed Limit Alerts runs a light set with one background colour (#F4F4FC) carried across every screenshot — the listing reads as a single poster when the shots sit side by side in search results. The accent colour we picked up, #344C7C, is the one to reuse for badges, arrows and highlighted words if you borrow this look. Hit Use this style to open the editor with these exact colours and drop your own screenshot in.
