Looking for a Vidometer Alternative for Android?
Vidometer is currently listed as an iPhone/iOS telemetry-video application. If you're looking for the same general type of experience on Android, VelocityCam is a separate Android application built independently for that platform: it records video together with GPS speed and recorded G-force telemetry, keeps the two synchronized during playback, and can bake the on-screen HUD into an exported clip. VelocityCam is not Vidometer, is not a port of Vidometer, and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Vidometer or its developer — it is simply an Android option for people searching for that type of app.
Telemetry video on Android
If you record cars, track sessions, off-road and Jeep/4x4 trails, ATV and UTV rides, motorcycles, boats, bicycles, snowmobiles, or other action and performance activities, plain video loses the part that matters most: how fast you were going and what the vehicle was doing. A telemetry camera keeps that data attached to the footage.
- GPS-derived speed in MPH or KM/H
- G-force telemetry recorded with the session for highlights and statistics
- Handheld HUD: GPS-based performance metrics for recording without a fixed mount (Pro)
- GPS-based performance metrics when recording handheld, with no fixed mount (Handheld HUD, Pro)
- Offline Route Trace showing the path travelled (Pro)
- Session statistics gathered from the recorded telemetry
What VelocityCam does
VelocityCam is an Android-native app. It records video with synchronized telemetry, plays the session back with the readouts aligned to the footage, and shows Session Details plus session analytics for each recording. Exports composite the HUD into a new MP4 you can hand to any compatible app through the Android share sheet, and Pro adds Route Trace (Ghost Route) plus CSV, GPX, and KML telemetry and route export. It runs local-first: no VelocityCam account, and no automatic cloud upload of your video.
VelocityCam and Vidometer, side by side
These are two independent products from two different developers. This comparison exists to answer one question honestly: if you searched for Vidometer because you want this type of app, can VelocityCam work for you on Android? Capabilities described for Vidometer are broad category-level statements about an iPhone application, not a feature-by-feature audit, and no claim of parity is made in either direction.

VelocityCamDriving and track sessions, off-road and 4x4, ATV/UTV, motorcycles, boats, bicycles, snowmobiles, and handheld action recording.
Vidometer is named here only to describe the search intent this page answers. VelocityCam does not use Vidometer branding, artwork, or marketing material, and the two products are unrelated. Where a capability is specific to the iOS application, check that product's own listing rather than relying on this page.
Built for Android, not ported to it
VelocityCam was written as an Android app from the start, so it works with the platform rather than around it.
- Uses the phone's own camera stack and automatically selects the highest stable quality it supports (UHD, FHD, or HD)
- Portrait and landscape recording, including reverse portrait for upside-down windshield mounts
- Front/rear camera switching before recording and a Wide option where the phone supports them
- Android share sheet support for compatible social apps such as TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube, plus Quick Share for compatible nearby devices
- Pro is a one-time Google Play unlock with Restore Purchases — not a subscription
- Runs on Android 10 (API 29) or newer
Getting started on Android
- 1
Install VelocityCam from Google Play
Install VelocityCam from Google Play, then open the app and grant the permissions needed for the recording features you choose.
- 2
Mount or go handheld
For speed and phone-derived G-force telemetry, mount the phone securely, or pick the Handheld HUD for GPS performance metrics without a mount. Recording starts once GPS is locked.
- 3
Review, export, share
Open the session in the Library for synchronized playback, Session Details, and analytics, then export with the HUD baked in and share it wherever you like.
Free — record, review, and export
- Video with a synchronized GPS speed HUD and recorded telemetry
- Minimal HUD profile (free). Handheld HUD profile requires Pro
- Synchronized playback and Session Details
- Searchable Library with filters and sorting
- Original, vertical, square, and landscape exports with the HUD composited in
- Android share sheet plus Quick Share for nearby devices
Pro — one-time lifetime unlock

- Handheld HUD profile plus premium HUD themes (Marine Blue, Minimal White, Cyber Green)
- Advanced session statistics
- CSV telemetry export
- GPX and KML route export
- Watermark control, session notes, and activity types
Privacy and local storage
VelocityCam stores recordings and telemetry in app-private storage on the phone. There is no VelocityCam account, no cloud sync, no advertising or analytics SDKs, no crash-reporting SDKs, and no background-location permission. Exports are created only when you ask for them, and sharing happens only after you pick a destination. No app can promise absolute security, so treat the phone itself as part of your privacy setup.
Device requirements
- Android 10 or newer
- Compatible rear camera (front-camera switching before recording, where supported)
- GPS hardware
- Free storage for recording and export
Frequently asked questions
Is Vidometer available for Android?
Vidometer is currently listed for iPhone/iOS rather than Android. VelocityCam is an independent Android application for users looking for the same general category of telemetry-video recording, built separately and unaffiliated with Vidometer.
Is there an Android alternative to Vidometer?
VelocityCam covers the same broad idea on Android: video recorded together with GPS speed and recorded G-force telemetry, synchronized playback, and exports that keep the HUD. It is not an official replacement and does not claim feature parity with any iOS app.
Can Android record video with GPS speed and G-force?
Yes. VelocityCam records GPS speed and telemetry alongside the video and keeps it aligned during playback and export. No OBD adapters, external sensors, or action cameras are required or supported.
Can VelocityCam export telemetry?
Yes, with Pro. CSV telemetry export plus GPX and KML route export are Pro features, unlocked once through Google Play. Free covers video export with the HUD composited into the file.
Does VelocityCam require an account?
No. There is no sign-up and no login in the Android app. Recordings and telemetry stay on the device, and nothing is uploaded automatically. Google Play handles the Pro purchase and its restoration.
Can VelocityCam be used for off-road, boating, motorcycles, and track driving?
Yes. Mounted recording suits trail and 4x4 runs, ATV and UTV rides, boats, motorcycles, and track sessions, with G-force telemetry recorded alongside GPS speed. Passengers and anyone recording without a mount can use the Handheld HUD instead.
Is VelocityCam related to Vidometer in any way?
No. VelocityCam is developed independently by JuMaSt Appworks LLC and has no affiliation, endorsement, or sponsorship relationship with Vidometer or its developer. The name is mentioned here only to explain what this page is about.
Install VelocityCam and start recording
VelocityCam runs on any Android 10+ phone with a rear camera and GPS. Record a session, review it with synchronized telemetry, then export and share it.
