Car acceleration measurement
Free · In-App Purchases
"CarTest" is a tool app that measures acceleration performance of cars, motorcycles.
You can easily measure times such as 0-60 mph, 0-1/4 mile by CarTest.
It is useful for not only measuring full throttle performance but also knowing the usual acceleration on public road for safe driving.
Please use it with safety first. Please comply with the law when using it on public roads.
(How to use)
1. Fix the iPhone (or iPad with GPS) with CarTest installed on the dashboard of your car so that it does not sway. If your iPhone doesn't fall while accelerating, you can just put it on the dashboard or center console. When using it on a motorcycle, install it on the handlebar or fuel tank.
2. Tap the "Start" button (or "Start / Repeat" button). if the device isn’t capturing GPS signal, “GPS / in Prep" is displayed, and if the device is capturing GPS signal and the car is moving, "Waiting for Stop" is displayed. (If the device isn’t capturing GPS signal, "GPS" mark to the left of the CarTest logo shows in thin gray.)
3. When the car stops and the message “Start at your timing / Ready" is displayed and an audible alarm will sound at the same time. Then start your car at your own timing. When your car starts, measurement starts and "Measurement Started" is displayed and the timer will begin. The screen frame turns green during measurement.
4. If your car decelerate during measurement, the measurement will finish and "Finished" will be displayed.
5. If the "Start/Repeat" button was tapped, when the speed drops near a stop, "Waiting for Stop" is displayed to prepare for the next measurement. You can end the measurement by tapping the "Stop" button.
6. When the measurement is finished, the latest result will be displayed. To see past results, tap the "Result" button (or the "▼Newer" button) and then use the "▼Older" and "▼Newer" buttons.

When in the stopped state (when neither the "Start" nor the "Start/Repeat" buttons are tapped), tap the "Stop" button twice to turn it on and off.
