      Hi Quinn! Thanks for stopping by.
      Hudly Wireless Heads-up display is the really great tool regarding easy GPS navigation and smartphone or tablet mirroring. I do not think that you can find it on store shelves as producer sell it only via its web page and some used items on Amazon. If you are from the US than only you have to do is order it. Good luck and safe driving.

    I am very interested with this product that you reviewed. But when I clicked onto the banner ad of Hudly Wireless Head-Up display, I was directed to a page about reducing high blood pressure. Is there something wrong with the link? Or maybe because I reside in Asia and that’s the reason I am not able to make the purchase? Hope you can find out for me how I can buy this product.

      Hi, Florence.

       Unfortunately, the banner works just for the USA IP addresses. 

      I can forward you to the Amazon. For the moment I found one used and with free shipping to Latvia. I am not sure about shipping to your address in Asia, but it is easy to check.

    Thanks for the heads up and letting us know the struggles you go through with a small screen (I’m glad I’m not alone). Like you I can’t seem to see the details on the screen without my glasses and this has become a big problem for me. I’ve almost given up trying to find a good phone mirroring screen and your recommendation had me thinking: I want one so bad but don’t think in a million years they’d ship to New Zealand. Do you know of any alternatives to this? Cheers for all your help!

      Hi, Brandon from New Zealand.

       Yes, glasses interfere with driving me too. The market is full of head-displays, but none of them even comes close to Hudly wireless.

       I asked the company about their plans to sell overseas, still waiting for the answer. 

      Just in case I searched in Amazon Australia and found one item for about 1.5K. Honestly, I was surprised. It leads to the conclusion about a value of the product. 

      I give you to know about Hudly plans.

    I also need glasses for driving and have the same problem as you.  I cannot see the GPS features clearly.  The Hudly you recommend seems like the perfect solution for this problem.  I do notice it is not available in my country yet, but hope this will change soon.

    I just have one concern.  Is it not a bit bulky to mount on your dashboard?  I do not want anything blocking my vision or be too distracting?  What is your experience in this regard?

    Thanks for a great article!

      Thanks, Rika for stopping by. 

      You are right as your eyesight with years becoming weaker and putting on and remove glasses can lead to distracted driving. Using head-up display is one of a solution.

       To answer your question of a bulky mount on the dashboard I would say that my Volvo has a pop-up navigation display in the middle of dashboard about the same size even bigger and it is ok.

    How does car play work actually? You plug it in and you start to watch movies? Would you also need a bigger tv screen in your car for the mirroring to take place?

    And what if the other passengers are watching a movie through CarPlay and a call comes in, what happens?

    Sounds like an interesting technology to consider.

      Hi. 

      Hudly head-up display is not a CarPlay. CarPlay is infotainment system for cars mainly for iOS (Apple) gadgets like iPhone or iPad. Hudly wireless HUD is mirroring everything from your mobile device to it own screen beginning GPS navigation to streaming online movies.

       You can mount it in a way to be convenient for kids on the back seat.

    It’s nice to see such a thorough piece of technology hit the markets and remove the safety issues involved with phones and cars. I can remember when I was younger and not really that responsible – whenever a message alert popped up on my phone when I was driving – I would try and figure out a way of glancing down at the screen to see who it was (when attempting to drive at the same time!). 

    Unfortunately my car is not fitted (as far as I can tell) with the CarPlay function – is this a pricey upgrade and where can it be found (store)?

      Hi Chris and thanks for commenting. 

      You are right, phone in the car could cause danger and distracted driving either it is SMS or incoming call. For calling you can use Bluetooth feature luckily almost every phone has it.

       Smartphones are a voice command option, but unfortunately, it is not very trusty especially if you want to make an important call. Wanting or unwillingly, you will want to check if you are the right subscriber and look at the screen so for a second you are not in the driving mode. 

      Hudly wireless phone mirroring device show everything from your phone right behind your eyes, and you will always be in touch with the road. Your car does not need to be equipped with CarPlay or Android Auto. It is an independent device.

    I am familiar with classic GPS units, but with the HUD, does it use your phone to drive the display? I would assume it just uses your phones location settings to pair with the HUD, but it wouldn’t be using the data or internet usage of the phones plan? since here the data usage can get expensive.

      Hi and thanks for commenting on my post. In short, this device is like Apple screen mirroring either iPhone, MacBook or iPad on your Apple TV screen. You can see on Hudly HUD display the same picture or listen any sound from your phone. Whether you spend internet data or not, it depends only on your preferences.

    I thoroughly enjoyed this read as I used to be an Uber driver and still to this day drive a lot. I constantly need to use the phone appropriately whether it’s for navigation, music, phone calls, etc. but the solution I have is simply a magnetic setup on my a/c vent in my 2011 Acura. Although this does the job, it still can distract me too much and be difficult to utilize when needed (not to mention unsafe). But, I was not even aware of the solution of phone mirroring in a car especially with at HUD. This really astonished me and helped me want to make a change that will be effective for my daily activities on the road!

      Hi Ryan. Actually, there are dozens of HUD on the market, but Hudly Wireless head-up display is the best I found. You can find many different Made in China HUDs under $100, but none of them even comes close to Hudly. I guess that this is right device for you.

    Thanks for the review of Hudly Wireless heads-up display. The big screen is what I like most. Sometimes it is difficult to see the many details on my phone. With the use of Hudly Wireless head-up display for phone mirroring on my car will solve my problem.

    You mentioned that there is no shipment outside US. I live in Asia. I will need to look for a way to buy this product.

    Thank you.

      Hi Christine and thanks for the interest of Hudly wireless HUD. Unfortunately, they are mostly oriented on the US market, but I hope this Hydly device soon will be available worldwide.

    I don’t travel a lot, but when I do, I love GPS!  And this would be so helpful with that!  I also like the feature that it can stream movies.  My kids love using my phone on trips and have to trade the phone off to each other every once in a while.  So, this would be really beneficial for them so they could watch something together on long trips!  Thanks!

      You are right as a HUD could be easily attached to some place on back seats and your kids can enjoy cartoons on the longest trips.

    Your review of some of the phone mirroring systems was just what I was looking for. My biggest question/concern is the cost to make this work. Also, I have an iPhone and it sounds like a lot of these are not compatible. Is that true? I like the safety aspects of being able to talk to the system without having to read the screens. I look forward to your reply. Thank you for sharing this. I hadn’t heard of it before.

      Hi Karin and thanks for stopping by. 

      This head-up display is compatible with your iPhone in all aspects. Only you need is connect the phone through Wi-Fi as you do it at home. On the Hudly devices screen in your car, you will see the same picture what is on iPhone at the present moment. 

      As well as, you can use Siri for voice commands to avoid distracted driving.

    Thanks for the in depth post. I always encounter much difficulties using my small screen display.Carplay is a great device but I hate the restrictions placed on some apple applications, Does Hudly wireless display support voice command and access to third parties application? I have seen it in stores but never imagined it entails so much usefulness.

      Thanks Clement for the comment. Yes Hudly supports both voice commands and third parties applications.
