Яндекс транслит

А можете при использовании навигации Яндекса показывать оригинальные названия улиц на русском языке? Сейчас транслит с английского на русский выглядит убого. Вместо «Щёлковское шоссе (дублёр)» вижу «Сцхыолковскоые Хуы (лоцал лане)». Немного смешно даже.

Worked for 3 months

After 3 months the device stopped working. Sometimes it would not come on at all. Sometimes it would turn off and on. I waited for a year for this device. What a joke.

Flawed product

The HUD crashed ever so often, partially did not restart. Phone needs to be unlocked and Hudway app opened that it works. Navigation voice does not announce full directions and gets cut off. OBDII dongle runs on continous power draining the battery. Having a fuse tap on IG would help. Helpdesk did not respond to my last email. Do not recommend this product.

Functionality leaves a lot to be desired

The app is really bad. For some reason the hudway wont pair with my phone even though it’s discoverable and done it before. Can’t tell if there’s a way to factory reset it or not. The Bluetooth OBD doesn’t connect in time most of my drives or it doesn’t pull in the correct information. It’ll say the RPMs are not available on my car. It’s nice when it works but it doesn’t work more often than it does.

Why my App after update not longer open it which means my Hudway not working at moment

Two days ago it looks like the app got update why my app after update won’t be able to open it which is my hudway no longer connect with my app any more

Disappointed

The hardware is disappointing and impossible to read during the day and in sunlight. The app doesn’t offer many features, and the map doesn’t work at all for me. Not a good product I would recommend at the moment.

Response from developer

Hi! We're very sorry for the failed expectations. To adjust brightness, please check this article https://hudway.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/11223972382610-Brightness-level-settings – it may help to make it better. As for the map, please check if you allowed the Location permission to All the time in your phone settings > Apps > Drive app > Permissions > Location. If this doesn't work, please feel free to let us know at support@hudway.co. Thank you!

Worst update ever

The app just doesn’t work anymore, period.

Response from developer

Hi! We apologise for the poor maps for Australia – we're currently working on implementing another map provider. As for the ETA, we'll also improve it once we've added a new provider. Thank you so much!

Gps работает отвратно!

Gps - ошибка в 5 км!!! Смартфон показывает правильно, а приложение ужасно!

Response from developer

Добрый день! Приносим свои извинения за некорректную работу. Было бы здорово, если бы вы рассказали нам подробнее в обращении в техподдержку по адресу support@hudway.co. Спасибо!

Why I can’t use Waze or google map or Apple map?

Your own navigation is not good (I think it’s Chinese company) Mirroring is not useful also my phone gets hot so fast. Why there is no speed warning? everything except navigation is ok. if the app allows Waze,google,Apple map. I’ll guarantee your app will be above average.

Response from developer

Hi! We apologise for failing to meet your expectations. We'd be grateful if you shared your location and trips with us at support@hudway.co. We'll try our best to figure it out. Thank you!

Bad hardware. The device stop working and support doesn’t seem like know how. Now I have an expensive car brick.

Works as intended. Just received my unit a couple of weeks ago and overall I am pleased with it

Response from developer

So happy to know it😊 Thank you a ton! Enjoy driving with us!

Is this compatible with hudway cast?

Hi i have a hudway cast. Is this app compatible? If not please make it work with the hudway cast.

Add support for the hudway cast please

Hi This app seems to be far better than the app for hudway cast. I am having the worst experience with the other app.

Response from developer

Hi! We're happy to know you liked the app and its performance! HUDWAY Cast is our previous product and development of the app is frozen. We thank you for supporting us!🙏🏼

Совет по улучшению прибора

Добавьте пожалуйста навигатор Waze И продажи ваших устройств взлетят на глазах.

Response from developer

Добрый день! Спасибо за ваш комментарий! Дело в том, что невозможно добавить навигатор Waze для нас как сторонних разработчиков, как и, например, Google maps. Данные навигаторы доступны в режиме мирроринга. С нашей стороны было возможно добавить только карты Яндекс, пока только для iOS. Спасибо!

Asks for way too much access!

I thought I’d see what it looks like. Install requires access to music and picture, why? It asks to run in the background all the time, Why? I don’t give Carter Blanche access to any app. 1 star for invasiveness.

Edit: I received a prompt response to my concerns, based on that I’ll amend my rating till I have time to reevaluate. Kudos to the developer for quick response.

Great product when you can pair the device

Very intuitive to use when it works. Have not been able to pair to device for a month or so now. Hopefully an update will remedy the situation.

Response from developer

Hi! We're sorry for the issue with connection. Could you please email us at support@hudway.co with the description of the trouble. We'll do our best to help. Thank you!

Все отлично

Много вариантов виджетов. Круто, что ты сразу видишь уведомления, не отвлекаясь на телефон.

Были проблемы с подключением OBD, но уже все исправили. Ребята, продолжайте в том же духе!
