Great product. Does exactly what is says: mirrors whatever is on your phone - Waze, google. Apple maps. Whatever. Note that the base is a rubber-like pad that grips to the dashboard but does not use adhesive. If it loses its grip, run it under water to make it like new again. The quality of the display is excellent - it’s larger than I thought, which is nice. The way this product works is you connect your phone to the WiFi network the Hudly broadcasts, then turn on screen mirroring (on Apple iPhone, the Hudly appears as an available Apple TV to broadcast to). This setup allows the phone to continue to connect to your vehicle’s Bluetooth for audio and phone calls while sending the map to the Hudly. Updating the firmware on the Hudly was a bit kluge. You join your phone to the Hudly WiFi, as soon as you do that the Hudly displays it’s IP address. Bring up safari on your iPhone and connect to that IP. Then click the WiFi icon, join the Hudly to a nearby WiFi network. As soon as you do that, Hudly will prompt you to update the firmware if N update is available. Note that when it prompts you to “press the button to co firm”, they mean the small white button on the HDMI dongle that is plugged into the underside of the Hudly. Everything works as advertised and in quite happy with this product. It’s as good as any OEM HUD I’ve seen but is better in that you can use any mapping app you like (ie Waze).
works fantastic, i used a HUD that you placed your phone on top of it before and liked it, however this is leagues beyond that. to be able to cast everything from your phone or tablet to it, makes it much better. the integrated speaker is nice if your car does not have bluetooth, and the brightness levels let you see it even when out in the direct sunlight.
I tried a few similar products and decided to keep only this one. It has its own problems but it’s the simplist solution to both Android and iPhone. For iPhone 8 and Mi Mix 2, it directly mirror the screen. But only iPhone can take the full screen via wireless. AirPlay from my iPhone is without noticeable lag but the voice sometimes is not clear. With Android miracast it won’t maximize the display. Maybe it is Mi Mix 2’s problem. It does allow you to connect a HDMI which I tried with Apple’s HDMI to Lighting port adapter. Both video and audio are at the best quality but it won’t take the full screen. I upgraded to 7.9.7 firmware. The back of the devices does have an extra USB port.
This Head Up Display is incredible! It works with my Iphone and with my Ipad installed in my car. Even the lighness is automatically - at night darker - at daytime brighter, The only minus point is, it doesn't work on USB Voltage - means your are not able to put it on a 2 amps 5 volts e.g. Anker USB plug. After asking for the nominal voltage Hudly just gave me a unusable answer. BUT!! On the plug there is a USB port which feeds the Ipad fine.
I made immediate use of this device and it was a great aid to my arriving on time at the right place. Easy to set up and little on hand time to understand how to use the device.

Good items
It's very good display.. love it
Display of my navigation app (google maps, waze, maps) is clean and crisp, yet transparent to see right through the windshield to not obstruct my line of sight. The WiFi feature eliminates tangled wires flowing around in the car, while broadcasting a translucent image onto the HUD device from my iPhone. I feel safe with this product on my dashboard - my eyes never leave the road! This company started off as a kickstarter and I have been following it ever since. They have always made high-quality, innovative products. Highly recommend this product for all drivers and road-trippers!
I've been following Hudly since it was a Kickstarter campaign and just received my device. I'm really impressed and pleasantly surprised with how crisp and sharp everything looks on the display! Tried it this past weekend on a road trip using Google Maps and really loved how safe it felt (versus looking at my mounted phone)!! I'll be purchasing a few more for my family!
So...I was originally one of their kickstarter backers and have to say I am extremely impressed by not only the product and delivery, but also, the incredible communication and customer service from Hudly! It’s pretty simple to setup and the projection quality is great with both third party apps like Waze/OBD fusion and their own in-house app (which admittedly has some bugs but still is very useful...especially with the OBDII Add-on /data
