They fixed it!! The app is 100% interactive with your HUD and has very reliable connectivity. I've been using it 3.5 years and now that they have fixed the problems it had, I'm happy to 5 star everything. EXCEPT, I would like to have a speedometer built in as a constant in an edge of the screen. Hear me out, a captain rider home screen with speed and compass direction built in.

User Reviews
Reviews show a 'works when it works' scenario: many users praise easy setup and HUD interactivity, but a large number struggle with login problems, bugs, and unreliable connectivity—especially Bluetooth drops and weak Android Auto integration. Updates have helped reduce lag for some, but stability and server-side reliability remain common complaints.
Pros
- Interactive control of the EyeRide HUD when the app functions, with generally reliable connectivity at those times.
- Easy initial account setup/login for some users, allowing quick access to features.
- Software updates have reduced lag and improved performance for some users.
- Basic configuration/control of EyeRide features is possible when the app is working.
Cons
- Widespread login/authentication problems and server/host errors blocking access.
- Frequent bugs, crashes, and update-related instability that often require reinstalls or workaround attempts.
- Android Auto integration is limited with few on-screen controls and issues with volume/navigation control.
- Bluetooth connectivity can drop during rides and intercom/remote pairing can be unreliable.
Recent reviews
It has turned out to be the most expensive bluetooth headset I've ever purchased. The prism lights up but it is stuck on the boot screen displaying "EYELIGHTS" only. I managed to speak to customer service, i had to force developer mode and activate a feature in the android auto app. Prism came alive. This product is still in testing phase. It is a great concept but the hardware is missing a number of improvements: gimble, battery, ventilation and compatibility
