Description

HUDWAY Cast app is designed to make using smartphone behind the wheel safer and less distracting. HUDWAY Cast app lets you manage basic smartphone functions behind the wheel in a quick, less-distracting way. It offers direct access to navigation, calls, messages, and music through its smart, driving-purposed interface. It’s designed to keep you focused on what really matters — on the road ahead. Navigation: Enter your destination or search for a POI — HUDWAY will create the best route to commute and give you turn-by-turn directions. The live 3D view of the road is easy to grasp, and you won’t get lost even at the most complicated junctions. And you won’t need Internet for that — the app will download offline maps for you to drive offline — globally! Calls: Keep your eyes on the road when receiving an incoming call — and use a swipe to accept or dismiss it. Add contacts to favorites and call them with one tap. Music: Connect your Spotify account or music library — and manage tracks with quick swipes and taps. You can also listen to hundreds of radio stations from all over the world (please note that you’ll need Internet for streaming online audio). Widgets: Quickly view your speed, ETA, trip statistics and driving score — and share your location with just one tap. Recommendations on app use: Mount your phone anywhere in your car where it’s convenient for you to quickly reach it — for example, above the airvent. The app can be used as is, but together with our HUDWAY Cast device it will give you an unparalleled experience of driving with a real heads-up display: you’ll still be able to manage your calls, messages, and music on your smartphone, whereas navigation will be streamed wirelessly onto a transparent lens right in your line of sight.

    The worst map I have ever tried. When I touch the re-center button, it shows my position is one mile from what I actually am.
  • Unusable. I had just high hopes.

    I brought this home so happy and ready to use it. I plug it in and get it setup and lone behold the app can’t pick it up. So I hardwired it in then it said a firmware update was available. I thought “oh sweet yeah this will update it and get it right” but all it did was display what I think they thought was cute as a “something went wrong” I backed out and tried again and it didn’t work. I tried using it as is and sure enough when I pressed “cast to hub” it casted the screen previous. Then I tried apple maps but that didn’t work because of the rotation of the phone. I’m so unbelievably frustrated.
  • Great simple UI but...

    The only reason I am not going with one star because the User Interface is simple and nice. I love it because my vehicle does not have Car Play... but do not forget to close the app when you are done. It not only drained my battery but made my phone hot to touch and I even have a case on my phone. Yes it was that hot!!!

    Absolute waste of money. Keep submitting bug reports with no response. Cool concept but not ready for market.
  • Garbage

    I have struggled with this gadget and hudway ld tech support for 6 months. Support has been less than helpful or really has offered any help other than YouTube videos and a 50 dollar credit. I was given this credit to essentially go away. But I was told even though I couldn’t return the device that I could have a credit and give it away as a gift or sell it. Well I’ve tried it on 5 iPhones and 2 androids and not once could I get it to work reliably. Fidgeting with this device while driving is an absolute hazard as it constantly goes out. It is not a reliable hud. And I’m super angry that how this company has treated me and stalled me out past return. I was told by a second person that I could return it and then kasy quickly jumped in to tell me I couldn’t. Your product doesn’t work and your business practices are questionable.
  • It has never worked

    I bought it from the Kickstarter campaign and it has never worked, the last version, even when my phone is connected to the cast network, it says that I don’t have a compatible device, seriously? Also, the screen mirroring crashes way too much, it makes my drive more dangerous because I have to re-start the thing...
  • Major improvement

    This latest update is a substantial improvement, and finally makes this device usable in my opinion. Losing the screen mirroring is much easier on my battery and is also less unstable. Also I notice the app now allows me to stream my Bluetooth audio to my stereo again. Connection stability is still imperfect, however, and screen refresh is slow. Still, big leap forward.
  • The Cast doesn’t work with iOS 11 and up

    02/07/2019 Update: the recent update has allowed me to cast to the HUDWAY while still connected to my car. Great direction, now to work out having it always connect. It connects maybe 25% of the time. 11/19/2018 Update: Still doesn’t work. 11/12/2018 Update: So with the new update that supposedly fixes the issue. I can say that nothing has changed. It still doesn’t stay connected. So it’s pointless to have an app meant for device that doesn’t work. You can connect your phone to it and it’ll disconnect 30 secs later. The creator says it’s apples fault. If that’s the case then don’t sell it saying it supports apple. I was told to get an android device to use the app and HUDWAY Cast.
  • The best app

  • EXTREMELY POOR APP. NO STARS

    Not a whole lot works on the app. Cannot listen to blue tooth phone songs while using the app. The navigation is a joke. Wished I did not believe the advertising. They are blaming Apple and are not taking responsibility for what they claimed would work. Why do they have music and phone on the app when you cannot use it????
