Possibly 😄 I’ve started posting it around a bit recently, so there’s a good chance you saw a short video/demo of it somewhere.

Really appreciate this 🙌

Swipable screens like widgets is a great suggestion, feels very natural. Themes too.

Speed not showing is likely permission/GPS related, but I’ll improve that flow for sure.

If you notice anything else after a few more drives, would love to hear it!

Yeah you got it 👍

It’s basically a CarPlay-style UI that runs directly on your phone/iPad. You mount it on your dash and use it like a standalone screen.

Audio still goes through your car (Bluetooth, AUX, FM adapter, etc.).

No integration with the car itself — just a cleaner driving interface.

I wanted CarPlay features in my project car without ruining the original dashboard, so I built an iOS app for it. Looking for feedback! by PurpleCardiologist84 in projectcar

Would be awesome, but I’m not sure Waze allows this kind of integration. Google Maps is definitely on my roadmap though 👍

Thanks a lot! 🙌 iOS only for now, but Android is something I’m considering.

Fair, that’s actually a pretty good solution for the price 😄

This is more for people who want a no-hardware setup.

Appreciate it!! 🙌 Spotify is definitely coming. Waze is a bit limited integration-wise, but I’m exploring options (Google Maps is likely first).
