Waze is amazing, but I'd really like to see it in a stripped down "HUD mode" while driving.
Ideally I could put it on the dashboard and view the reflection in the windshield. For that to work, the UI would need to be stripped down to the minimal navigation elements, with thicker, higher contrast navigation lines and less, but larger text, and the image would need to be inverted, so the reflection would be readable. But the key is that it's stripped down to the minimal info so it's not distracting while driving. That is, the road ahead most of the time, and turn instructions when a turn is coming up, and of course, the current voice alerts.
For extra credit, it'd be nice to have more voice control, so (for example) I could use the app hands-free, and still confirm that I see what's by the side of the road, etc.
The current HUD apps look nice, but don't have Waze's depth.
