-# speedometer
+# Simple Speedometer
-A new Flutter project.
+A simple free speedometer, currently supporting Android.
-## Getting Started
+I made this because I was disappointed by all of the existing speedometer apps out there. They usually have ads, premium subscriptions, and features that I have no use for. This app simply shows the current speed once it is opened, and no more.
-This project is a starting point for a Flutter application.
+## Building
-A few resources to get you started if this is your first Flutter project:
+The only dependency for building this is to install the Flutter SDK and whatever SDKs are required for the platform that you would like to build for. Currently, I am only supporting Android, but I will accept patches to make this software work on other devices.

+Building an APK is as simple as running `flutter build apk`. Copy the file from the `build/app/outputs/flutter-apk/app-release.apk` to your device, and run the APK file to install it. You can run it as a desktop application using `flutter run`, which provides debugging utilities such as hot reload.

-samples, guidance on mobile development, and a full API reference.
