### 2/5 — Needs update to support iPhone X screen size (and iPhone 6?)

*2018-03-19, version 11.4*

This app needs an update to support the screen sizes of modern phones, and to have a more intuitive and modern user interface.

### 3/5 — help

*2017-01-26, version 11.2*

### 2/5 — 残念

*2015-05-04*

画面の描画がおかしくなっていて、使い物になりません。

### 3/5 — 画面おかしい

*2015-02-08*

iPhone6+

アプリアップデート後からマルチタスク切り替えやスリープ復帰後に表示が画面おかしい真ん中だけで、しかも表示内容が速度の一部分しかみたれないバグ発生

窓から表示の一部分を覗き見ているような表示になえうって言った方がわかりやすいかな

この作者のHUDアプリ全部で発生

### 3/5 — iPhone 4S

*2013-04-07*

Не поддерживает ретину ? Или такая графика отстойная ? Надо бы улучшить интерфейс! А дальше пока не хочется и тестировать уважаемые разработчики :(

### 5/5 — Spot on!

*2012-08-01, version 8.1*

This is one of the best digital dash apps I have tried!
Speedo is accurate but changes slowly, don't expect it to be right for 30 seconds after you start. 
Responds well to gradual changes in speed. 
Altimeter is bang on agrees with my topographical map as to the altitude of my house. 
Great app and free too!
Might even upgrade...

### 5/5 — 界面效果不错

*2012-07-31*

界面效果不错，下来看看实用不？

### 5/5 — 还不错

*2011-12-29*

一个比较不错的HUD，头次用相关软件，白天的时候因为iphone的亮度问题还是不够清楚，晚上效果很好。

### 2/5 — Doesn't seem to work

*2011-07-14, version 7.1.1*

Can't get it to work - wondering if it's me missing something but from what I can see there is no way to start the app functionality

### 5/5 — Also works well with iPad

*2011-07-02, version 7.1.1*

I got this on my iPhone first and I liked it.  As a HUD in mirrored mode I actually like the app a lot better on the iPad when I double the size of the display.

The speed is very accurate.  The display flashes to warn me when I'm speeding.  The display tells me exactly how far I am from home.  

This app is most useful to the driver from dusk through dawn, but a number of passengers have had fun checking it out for a few minutes on trips.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2011-06-19, version 7.1.1*

This is by far the best free HUD. Works great at night.

### 4/5 — Very Good!! but...

*2011-06-12*

East and West have been inverted.

### 5/5 — Awesome App!!!

*2011-06-05, version 7.1.1*

This is just as good as a digital dash built into a car. I cannot believe how responsive it is. When I took off from the traffic lights it was measuring as I went, instead of some apps I have tried which jump about 10 kmh at a time. I am very impressed, and it is easy to position the display so you can see it but not have it in the way of your line of sight. At the moment I just sit mine on the dash, with a slightly sticky Moshi cover on my iPhone 4 and it stays put perfectly.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy this app

*2020-07-23, version 11.5*

It’s rubbish. Yin can’t do anything on this app. This is scam

### 1/5 — Mph??? Where to find.

*2017-12-17, version 11.3*

### 1/5 — Too bad it requires iOS 7

*2013-10-10, version 9.3*

Why require iOS 7?  Do you not care about your loyal customers still using older devices? Please update to support at least iOS 6.  Thanks!

### 1/5 — GPS가 잘 안잡혀요

### 5/5 — Change speed from Km to mi

*2019-08-06, version 11.5*

In order to change the display units to miles....go to “preferences “....then tap “MORE” at the bottom right of the screen....pick whatever you want for units

### 5/5 — Help

*2017-03-10, version 11.2*

After I figured out where in the settings to change the meter to miles; now I love this app.  Looks cool and gets the job done.  Good job team!

### 5/5 — Best HUD on iOS

*2014-03-14, version 9.5*

I don't use it as a HUD myself but docked in my dashboard and the information is precise, the customization allows for me to get the info I need the way I want it. I've tried many other HUD apps and no one comes close to this.

### 5/5 — Get this app

*2014-02-14, version 9.4*

I have been using this app for about 5 years and it's great. Simple display gives useful information while travelling. Plus it looks cool.

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2013-10-12, version 9.3*

I love the way this app looks and how easy it is to use. Thanks for the app and I look forward to even more enhancements!

### 5/5 — I live this app on a trip

*2013-10-08, version 9.3*

Makes the time fly by.

### 5/5 — Heads Up is a great Feature

*2013-10-07, version 9.1*

I have used HUD for over a year now. It is really useful to be able to see a digital display in your windshield at night. And a positive display in the day time. It shows speed compass heading and other info that is useful. The speed flashes red when you exceed your current speed a bit, even when driving a safe speed. If they could connect to the speed limit database for roads like they have on GPS devices it would be very useful; otherwise I'd suggest it be eliminated. I like knowing my true speed and altitude. It also shows distance from home if you turned it on at home. That's nice. 

Overall I think this is a unique and useful app. Keep up the good work. Jim from Woodbridge, VA.

### 5/5 — 就是没有语言设置

*2013-05-23*

没有中文设置

### 5/5 — A Veerrry Nice Effort

*2012-12-28, version 8.2*

This item exhibits perhaps the cleanest, most comprehensive and easiest to read graphics of all of the many navigations applications I've downloaded.  One is provided with several forms of customization allowing you to easily make use of this item.  While it's odometer is off to the minus-side it's remains worthy of five-stars.

### 5/5 — 好用的小软件

*2012-08-18*

有了这个，什么GPS码表之类的小玩意全删了。
