      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.

      It is $10 per month, but I think it only provides setups for iRacing. It does have some cool features like the ability to ghost the driver and car that set the lap record with same setup they sell to you.
