Somewhere you go. Save it once, then pick it and Crispy will tell you how far and how long. Nothing here leaves your phone.
Add a place three ways. Search finds shops, fuel, schools and the like by name and town — "Harbor Freight Madison" — as well as roads by name. It downloads its list once, then works with no signal.
The simplest way of all: drive there once and tap Save where I am now. No copying, no numbers.
Say “help” while driving and Crispy shows where you are, reads it out, and offers to put a call on the screen for you to tap. She never dials by herself.
How far from the limit before she says something. Steppers, not a slider: a slider is unusable with a thumb in a moving van.
How many speed limits she may ask you about while you drive. She never asks about the same stretch twice in three days whatever this says, and “0” stops her asking at the wheel altogether — the questions still wait for you under Crispy asks.
Shorter means she speaks up more often. This is the one that really changes how much she talks — lowering the numbers above will not help if she is waiting on this.
A speed that is too fast whatever the sign says. She drops into the robot voice for this one, and only this one.
What a road is worth when there is no sign on it. These start at Georgia's numbers — change them to your own state's and she uses yours everywhere. Look up your state's limits.
A sign always wins, and so does a number you have typed in yourself on a particular road. The dirt-road figure is used only on the fill-in screen — the map does not record which roads are unpaved, so she cannot tell one from the seat the way you can.
Testing. Recording a drive saves the positions to a file so a problem can be replayed at a desk afterwards.
What the app can see right now. Useful when something looks wrong; nothing here needs doing.
Things Crispy noticed while you were driving and saved for now. Answer what you like and ignore the rest — nothing here expires.
Roads where Crispy had no posted limit, most-driven first. Fill one in and your number wins over the map from then on.
Places she never speaks. Added where you are standing now — park first, then add.
What she said, and where. Kept on this phone for 30 days.
⚠️ Everything here lives on this phone only. Clearing the browser's data wipes every road you have filled in and every zone you have drawn. This file is the only copy there will ever be — keep one somewhere safe.
It is also how you move things between two devices. Saved places, quiet zones, filled-in roads and the log all travel in it. Save a backup on one, put the file somewhere both can reach — Google Drive, or email it to yourself — then Restore on the other. Restoring ADDS to what is already there; it never replaces it.
The app announces a new version by itself when one is ready. This button is the fallback for when it cannot: it throws away everything the phone has cached and fetches the app again. It does not touch your zones, your filled-in roads or your log — those are stored separately.
When part of the app fails silently — a button that does nothing, a screen that does not appear — it is written down here. There is no console on a phone, so without this there would be no trace of it at all. It rides out in the backup file above, which is how one of these reaches me.
What everything does, in full. Read it parked — nothing in here needs doing while you are driving.
The big number on the left is your speed, worked out from the phone's GPS. It lags the van's speedometer by a second or two, and the van's is the one that counts. The small line under it says how far over or under you are.
The big number on the right is the limit for the road you are on, and the badge under it says where that number came from. There are four answers and they are not the same thing:
Beside the road name is the way you are pointing along it — N, SE and so on. It is blank while you are stopped, because a phone has no heading until it moves.
With Stay awake on, the screen goes nearly black after one minute and keeps your speed, the limit and the street showing. The app is still running underneath and she still talks. The ⚑ Mark this spot button stays usable through it too, so marking a run of signs in the dark never lights the phone up. Tap anywhere to bring it back — that tap only wakes the screen, it never presses whatever was under your thumb, so you can tap wherever is easiest.
⚑ Mark this spot stays live through the dark screen, because marking a run of signs is the one thing you do while it is down. Tapping it marks the spot and leaves the screen dark — she says "Got it" out loud, and the button itself says so too if you look.
The common one: 55 out in the country, 45 at the edge of town, 35 once you are in it. One road, three numbers. You do not have to tell her any of them.
That is the whole job at the wheel. You never tell her a number while driving and she never asks you for one.
One sign is a perfectly good answer. A road that changes once — 55 down to 45 and stays there — is a single tap, and she works it out exactly the same way. One sign means two stretches: before it, and after it. There is nothing to finish and nothing missing.
For the next two or three days, every time you drive that road she notes what speed you settle at between each pair of signs. The badge under the limit says where she has got to — learning · day 1 of 3, then day 2, then day 3.
When she has enough, the badge reads ready to ask and the question is waiting under Crispy asks when you park at home — with her numbers already filled in. You confirm them or correct them, and that is that.
She allows for the fact that you do not drive the limit. On roads where the map already knows the real number she measures how far over you usually settle, and takes that off before suggesting anything. Without that a steady 48 in a 45 would come out as a 50.
Nothing is lost and nothing resets. The days are counted, not waited out — if you are on day two and do not go that way for two weeks, it is still day two when you next drive it, with everything it learned on the first two days still there. A gap only pauses it.
If you already know the numbers, open Crispy asks and put them in on day one. She waits before asking so her suggestion is worth having — she never stops you telling her.
A sign applies from where it is until the next sign.
That is the whole rule. No halfway points, no minimum spacing, no working anything out — two signs a couple of hundred yards apart is fine, which is exactly the case the old way could not handle at all.
The limit on screen stays whatever the map says, and the badge says learning so you know why. She will not put a number on the screen that she worked out from your own driving and has not had confirmed — a guessed limit is how an app like this ends up telling you off for obeying a sign.
Setting a limit from Roads to fill in still works as it always did: it covers the whole of that road. That is the right tool for a road with one limit end to end. Where the limit changes partway along, mark the signs instead — and if you do both, the signs win, because they are more specific.
Answering a named road from that list clears every stretch of it off the to-do list at once, so eighty entries for one road can disappear in a single tap. That is right, not a fault: you answered the question for the road.
All four end at the same keypad — 15 to 70, every five — and all four tell you what the number is about to cover before you tap it. It is one keypad everywhere on purpose: the sign-marking screen used to have a shorter one of its own with no 60 and no 70 on it, so a road that changed to 60 could not be answered at all.
Under the keypad is a no sign on this road list, for a road with no sign on it at all. Those five numbers are yours — set them in Settings to whatever your state uses where nothing is posted. They start at Georgia's figures (O.C.G.A. §40-6-181), which is where the app was built. If there is a sign, the sign is the law and those numbers are not — use the keypad.
Only ever put in a number you have actually seen on a sign, or one of those defaults. A wrong limit means she tells you off for obeying the law, and that is how an app like this ends up switched off.
Everything she noticed on the road and saved for when you are parked. Marks you made, doubts she raised about the map, and the zone limits she is still missing on roads where you marked the signs. Answer what you like and ignore the rest — nothing expires, and nothing here is ever put in front of you while the van is moving.
A zone she has nothing to go on for says she needs this one down the side, with a 👁 Sign button that opens Street View at that sign, looking the way you were driving — so you can read it from the kitchen days later instead of guessing. Once she has watched the stretch two days the row offers her own number instead, and it is one tap to confirm.
Above the zones is a row for each sign you marked, with how far
on it is, how many days she has watched it, its own 👁 Sign view, and Remove.
That is there because one ⚑ does two jobs — it files a question for later and marks a
sign — so a tap for a pothole, or a second tap on the way back where the opposite sign stands
a few hundred feet away, leaves a sign that is not really there. Remove asks twice:
the first tap arms it, and it disarms itself if you leave it.
Removing a sign throws away the days of watching she has done there,
which is the real reason for the two taps. If the stretches either side of it held
different limits, the joined stretch goes blank and asks you once rather than
quietly keeping one of them — the number on screen would otherwise disagree with the one she
actually used. Your original ⚑ note is never deleted.
When you park somewhere saved with zone limits outstanding, she puts that keypad up by itself and tells you which road — "Two speed limits to set on Newborn Road before you go in." Only if you are not already in the middle of something: if the panel is open, or you are in Settings, she leaves the screen alone and just puts the line on the dashboard for you to tap. Marks and doubts always wait to be tapped.
Everything lives on this phone and nowhere else. Clearing the browser's data wipes every road you have filled in and every zone you have drawn, and a year of your own corrections is the one thing here that would genuinely hurt to lose. The backup file is the only copy there will ever be. Restoring adds to what is already there — it never replaces it, so an old backup put onto a phone you have used since cannot drop your newer work.
