Speedometer by HUDWAY for Negative User Reviews
✓ Very disappointedMap shows only 60 miles on 75 Miles per hour.Version: 1.2
✓ HopelessApp does not change from 60kmh, have emailed the app developer but heard nothing back so will be asking Apple fir a refund, don’t waste your money or time, wish I could rate it 0 stars.Version: 1.2
✓ Needs workI really like the concept of this app and it has a pretty slick interface. But, there a few of problems with it and that is why I will not continue to use it and would never pay for the "premium" features. 1. I don't like the UI. I find the big progress ball distracting and there is nothing that shows your current speed (until you are speeding!). Why not show your current speed in bigger numbers and have them blink and change color when the speed limit tolerances are exceeded? You could have a smaller less obtrusive progress bar and also have the static speed limit off in the corners. 2. Needs to allow tolerances limits from 0 to 5mph, ie in increments of 1. Setting the tolerance to 0 is silly as the HUD will be blinking at you all the time if you drive the speed limit. A tolerance of 5 is not bad but sometimes I want something around 3 when I know I am in risky zones. 3. By far the biggest problem is that the automatic speed limit function works marginally. I used the app several days in conjunction with my on board navigation that also shows the posted speed limit... this allowed me to see when my onboard GPS would pickup the changes compared to when the app would pick them up. My onboard app almost always would change correctly, almost at the exact point when you would pass a speed limit sign. The app, quite frankly, was lost most of the time. In fact, it would show posted speeds not even close to what the posted speed actually was. Worse of all, if you went from a higher speed section to a lower speed section, it would not change and if you weren't paying attention or simply was going by the app HUD, you would be speeding! Kinda defeats the purpose no?!.Version: 1.0
✓ Only works on highwaysFound that it does not work on side streets or city streets. If the app does not know the speed, just show - - instead of showing 55 or 60 on a residential road where it is really 25. If other apps can tell me what the side streets are,why can’t this app. This one does a much better job of alerting when it knows the right speed..Version: 1.3
✓ Pretty primitive and basic for $5.99First of all, it can only be used in landscape mode. This is pretty basic since getting a call exposes this flaw. I bought this app this year. Honestly, I paid $5.99 thinking the database would update regularly. I live in NJ, the visual display is useful. But the roads are totally not updated. In the area I live the roads have been in place since 1870. And the speed limit on most of the roads in the area are 35, 45 and 50mph. I have a garmin gps and the speed limits are definitely updated as it switches as soon the speed limits change. Most of the time, the app has 55mph on a 25 or 30mph. For $5.99, I would expect the app to be updated. The app asks to update in the background while I drive. But it never updated the database to include the roads I travel most that other apps include as free and not paid for..Version: 1.1.3
✓ Not workingIt’s stuck on 80, I paid for this!? I see someone complained about this 3 years ago!! Still not fixed .. unacceptable.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Totally uselessThe app is not working. Nearly got me a speeding fine. It fails to pick up 40 kmh zones. It changes speed limit to 100 in normal 60 kmh zones. Also in carparks it sets to it self 100 kmh limit. Tested the app over 2.5 days. Unfortunately unable to recommend at this stage. Is this a beta test version?.Version: 1.2
✓ Out of dateI have not seen a correct speed limit yet. Says it’s downloading from data base but limits are consistently incorrect. Bummed I paid for.Version: 1.4.2
✓ A lot of good and some notThis app is the best of ours kind, perhaps seconds to none, but, yes! A big but, the app speed warning is very annoying only because it more often than not does not know the true speed limit even though I updated the database consistently forcing me to set the vision speed for 10 miles over which then fails you advise me when I'm just 5 over which is a unique feature to this app. The only other thing is it will suddenly say I'm going much slower than I actually am including going 0. It worked better as a free app but will be the best app anywhere if they fix things up..Version: 1.2
✓ Stuck at 60!The app opens at 60 and stays there; the 7 day Premium subscription does not trigger automatic road speed limit recognition. No idea how the developers expect any one to pay for a static speed alert, when many are free. The app does not have any indicator that it's GPS is actually working nor if auto road speed is being detected. For its promise it falls rather short. Delete..Version: 1.0
✓ Great app but doesn’t work well in NZHi, I really like this app but doesn’t work well in New Zealand. Please upgrade. Thanks.Version: 1.3
✓ Faulty appDatabase will not load.Version: 1.3
✓ Not Impressed! Overpriced!Very few features and the app lacks local maps to make speed limits accurate. Way overpriced! Save your money and put it toward a better app!.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Wrong infoUsed it to start driving right and nope! If I listened to this thing i would definitely get a speeding ticket. Told me I could go 60 in a residential road lol.Version: 1.2
✓ Hudway SpeedometerNo stars from me! Would be exactly what I want IF it worked! Does NOT know speed limits in New Zealand. It just stuck on 60 kmh all the time. Developer said they're busy with something else, and can't fix it. That's not fair :(.Version: 1.2
✓ No data. Rubbish appDatabase loading failed. I tried their map app. That failed to download offline maps rendering it useless as well. RUBBISH COMPANY WITH RUBBISH APPS..Version: 1.2
✓ It would be great ifIt would be great if the speed limits on the app would actually be current it's quite useless otherwise..Version: 1.2
✓ Not what expectedThought it will tell me the speed limit on those unexpected zones when suddenly the speed changes. But no" it's guessing the speed limit on most areas. Not accurate at all. Dedicated one day to pay attention to speed limits posted and in most (95%) was wrong. Only right on the standard 55 and 60 on freeways which you don't need an app to remember.Version: 1.2
✓ Useless in its' current statePretty useless, not showing current speed, and clearly has no information about the actual speed limit , making it a waste of effort to even try it, and definitely not worth buying in its' current state..Version: 1.2
✓ Needs workMany issues that does not make this a friendly app. First off, you have to buy the membership after seven days or else you dont get the features that make this app real useful. Second the app does not show you your actual speed, until you actually pass the speed limit. This is in no way helpful in the event that your speedometer in your car doesnt work. You wont know how fast your going until you pass the speed limit, which by then your screwed and you get a ticket. Last but not least, the automatic speed limit setting has to be up to date with the actual roads. I tried it and it was saying the limit was 75 instead of 80 from where I start off. I would actually give this 5 stars and would not mind buying the lifetime membership if these issues were addressed..Version: 1.0
✓ Didn’t work for basic functionalityWasn’t able to detect 40km/hr local streets, just assumed 60km/hr.Version: 1.3
✓ Hard to calibrateApp does not give you the correct speed limit for the road you’re on. Should be simple..Version: 1.2
✓ Doesn't workThis app doesn't work. Don't bother. Speed limit on every street is incorrect. DELETE.Version: 1.1.1
✓ Poor customer supportI 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. Update: Nope still doesn’t work. This company keeps trying to send me the same three videos. Not once has their product come into question. Very in helpful. I would definitely dissuade people from buying. Need to contact the BBB.Version: 1.3
✓ Does no workKeeps saying downloading data for your area.Version: 1.3
✓ GARBAGE!!A 5 year old can make a better app than this!!! Just a waste of time!!!!!!.Version: 1.2
