      ACC Drive is an app that I use all the time. It has a lot of overlays, similar to Race Labs, although the look is a bit less fancy. It does the job very well. F.e. track map, fuel calculations, radar, tyre data, standings (with LFM / iRacing rating). It also had a lot of engineer info when you look at it when you are in the pit (avg tyre temp, brake temps, etc). And it can start your other required apps. Really good app.

      I use DRE (Digital Race Engineer) as an alternative to Crew Chief. It has some features above Crew Chief and does some better than Cre Chief. Give it a go, there is a free version.
