Yes. Odo is free to download on the App Store, with no ads and no sign-up, and it is a full CarPlay app rather than a widget. Open it on your car's screen, wired or wireless, and the Live tab shows your GPS speed with the stats you choose, such as distance, average and top speed.
The CarPlay app also has trip controls, saved places with nearby fuel and charging, turn-by-turn navigation and, with an OBD2 adapter, live engine gauges and trouble codes. These CarPlay screens need no subscription. The Gauge layout, which draws a real speed gauge on the car's screen, is part of Odo Premium: see /features/carplay-speedometer-gauge. Optional in-app purchases unlock extras on the iPhone, such as detailed trip analysis. See /carplay.
