In 2019, Google Maps for Android got a speedometer that “simply tells you how fast you’re driving on the road,” and now it’s coming to the iPhone.
Google has confirmed this iOS and CarPlay rollout for TechCrunch. The speedometer appears in the lower left corner as a circle when you are driving a vehicle. This “speedometer changes color if you exceed the speed limit.”
Google Maps is also rolling out speed limit indicators globally for the road you are on.
As for safety, Google clarifies that the gauge is “for informational purposes only” and that “external factors may cause the Maps speedometer to differ from your actual speed.”
There’s a shortcut to “turn the speedometer on or off by tapping Speed Limit.” Go to Maps Settings > Navigation > Map Display > Show Speedometer to turn it off completely.

We see it in Google Maps for iOS with version 6.123.0. This server-side update has been rolling out to users over the past few weeks.
The speedometer is not yet available on Android Auto.
