Earlier quoted context omitted.

"Ask Navdy to "compose new tweet", "write new text". The Navdy use-case of sending and receiving text messages or tweeting seems like a particularly horrible idea.

I sincerely hope this whole product is actually an elaborate honeypot operated by the DMV and will just result in the permanent revocation of the driver's licenses of everyone who preordered.

Crap.. It looks like someone figured it out!

I was literally just checking the status of my pre-order for Navdy. https://www.navdy.com/ It seems they are shipping by the end of March this year. They claim to integrate with Siri and Google Now. >"We know people are loyal to their brands and virtual assistants, from Siri to Google Now, and we’re making it effortless to access them during the driving experience." http://blog.navdy.com/october-updates/ I will be in…

I definitely hear that! HeadsUP! offers complete refunds until the device has shipped. So it's on us to deliver (as it should be).

Amazon's Alexa enables HeadsUP! to get into the connected home -- like turning off home lights.

I hope it fairs well :)

I agree, it could be problematic if you've made a mistake. At the moment HeadsUP! sends texts as a voice memo + a transcription.

Any suggests on improving this? :)
