BTYSHU: A Dashboard for the Car You Already Own
An Android dashboard that sits beside a navigation app to show GPS speed, UK speed limits, engine data, fault codes, and automatically logged journeys.
Field notes
The app uses an Android phone or tablet as a second dashboard alongside the driver's existing navigation app. GPS supplies speed and road-limit information, while an optional ELM327 Bluetooth LE adapter contributes readings such as revs, coolant temperature, fuel data, fault codes, and battery voltage. The page says journeys begin above 5 mph, end after three minutes stopped, and export as CSV. It also describes offline speed-limit storage for England and live lookup elsewhere.
