Calls without losing maps

On the Mount — Car & Moto

Balanced for the road: built equally for car drivers and motorcyclists

Car Drivers

The map stays in front. Less noise on a long drive, keeping cockpit controls within easy reach, including after dark.

Motorcyclists

Readable on a motorcycle mount, even in the rain and under vibration. Large controls — easy to hit accurately in riding gloves.

Smart HUD & Navigation Bridge

Tactile cockpit controls overlaid directly on your map. After a phone call ends or after returning to the home screen (launcher), navigation automatically restores to the foreground.

Why these permissions & privacy

Vindly keeps cockpit controls on top of your navigation app. AccessibilityService is strictly used to detect screen changes, return navigation to the foreground (Navigation Bridge), and manage icon dimming (Ghost UI).

Notification access inspects alerts locally on your device, and the microphone permission (RECORD_AUDIO) is used solely for immediate voice confirmations ("Yes" / "No") in Vindly AI. AI summaries run via cloud functions under a Zero Data Retention agreement (no logging, no model training).

Anonymous diagnostics are gathered via Google Firebase (Crashlytics and GA4 prod) to ensure platform stability. Vindly contains zero advertising SDKs or third-party marketing trackers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I block notifications while driving on Android?

Vindly keeps the map on screen and does not flood it with unnecessary clutter. Unlike system Do Not Disturb, it still lets navigation prompts and important calls through. Full blocker mode is Focus Lock on Premium.

Is there a HUD app for motorcycle navigation?

Yes. Vindly is a phone Smart HUD, not a replacement for a built-in bike screen. It sits on top of your navigation app. Tested on a mount, in rain, and under vibration.

How do I reduce eye strain from the Smart HUD at night?

After dark, Adaptive Horizon automatically warms the colors of Vindly's own interface (Amber Horizon mode) and cuts blue light from its elements, tuning them for night driving. Available on the Premium plan.

Can I use my phone as a car HUD without distractions?

Yes. Vindly puts Smart HUD over any Android navigation app. Ghost UI dims icons when nothing needs a reaction. No extra hardware.

Does navigation disappear after a phone call while driving?

Yes — that is the free core. After a call and after you return to the home screen, Vindly brings the map back. Custom return timers from other apps (music, messengers) are Premium. Try 1 month free on the annual plan (then $29.99/year) or choose the monthly plan in Google Play.
