Hudway Go: Navigation with HUD 4+

This isn’t the most user friendly app in the world but it could get by if it was tied to a decent GPS. But the GPS tied to this app is awful. I’ve only had one experience with it but that’s clearly enough. I bought 5 VIZR Heads Up Displays for myself and Christmas gifts. They recommend this app to be used with it. Apparently WAZE and Google Maps won’t work on HUD’s, which is regrettable. I live in a well established neighborhood in a good sized city.
I programmed in my Home Address and asked it to navigate me to a local post office 4 miles away, on almost a straight shot on a large arterial roadway. It did, and I was pleased. Then I told it to navigate me to my Home. The GPS on this very simple drive couldn’t do it. It directed me to make several wrong turns before even getting near to my destination. When I got home, the GPS didn’t recognize where I was, even though I started from there 20 minutes beforehand.
It’s too bad. The HUD hardware worked pretty well, but what good is a great display when the recommended app is misdirecting you? I’m going to have to send back the 5 display units until some decent GPS is made available with the reversed and inverted image necessary for this kind of hands-free display.

This app. is okay considering there is no HUD app out there right now that deserves more than 3.5 stars. Im sure dev. is thinking “yea, what do you know; we’d like to see you try.” Well, my Python and backend Java are now to the point I’m thinking of taking a stab at it and developing some monoliths to work with Apple’s GPS and selling it to Apple for a couple grand so my time wasn't absolutely for free. The world deserves an HUD app allowing them to keep there eyes on the road while not leaving them stranded and 30 miles off course because of it’s inaccurate GPS partners.. If creating something Apple sees with scooping up means saving lives, well, it’s worth a couple dozen hours on my end. Other than this apps terrible GPS, the telemetry is again, OKAY, at best. Compared to the rest of the market in this space, OKAY is actually “pretty good” . I’d say it’s worth a download.

Hi! Many thanks for sharing your opinion with us and for your estimation 😊 We wish to be on the level when such sophisticated GPS systems are at our hands. We're working on the new version of the app and we'd appreciate your testing and review right after you try. Once again thank you!

I installed the Hudway Go premium app with Sound. Upon using it it had many wrong turns and incomplete actions. Example it would say turn right in 200 feet but there was no right turn and the arrow was showing left turn. When using it on a highway in getting off in a city it had me get off incorrect exit and then lost the signal and could not provide new location. I had to switch to Google Maps. Overall it does work most of the time except when you getting into a city situation. What I have been doing is running Hudway Go with no sound and with Waze voice running in the background I would really like my money back on this one, bad choice not reliable.

Dear JJ, we thank you for such a detailed feedback and reporting the issues. We're working hard to improve the app performance — and the nearest update should see major improvements in navigation and voice guidance. We're also improving the overall responsiveness and efficiency for the United States, as we bought new servers to faster process the data.

Anyway, if you would like your money back, we respect your decision — please email us at support@hudway.co so that we arrange a refund. Thank you again!
