Hi Got my new Dynamic Evoque yesterday with HUD and inControl apps.
HUD was a worthwhile addition, Apps is disappointing so far. Only useful app would be music, but I had no sound, tried on two iPhones. Will try again tomorrow but I'm feet up in a hotel at the moment for the new year.

Hi Dave, Would be interesting to see some pics of the HUD in action
RE: Incontrol Apps - Daveparky - 31-12-2014 03:18pm
I've sorted the in Control app issue, to enable both visual and audio you need USB AND Bluetooth connectivity. I can now use the music app, not worth £300 though.
Would be nice to have an AirPlay type connectivity so I could get bbc news feeds, Facebook alerts read out etc.
The HUD is shown in link below, mine only shows the speed, cruise control, and the navigation when it's programmed, the intelligence pack would show the speed sign which in hindsight I would go for.
The HUD @£800 is a thumbs up. #boystoys

Saw this just before Christmas
http://www.carscoops.com/2014/12/jlr-introduces-justdrive-connectivity.htmlinteresting video at the bottom. Might be just thing to really make the InControl Apps useful. Spotify is in the list
Here's a link to a UK announcement too.

Can't see it in the App Store yet, but I've asked Pete about availability

Hi Dave
I'm due to pick up my new Evoque with HUD next weekend. Am impatient to see what it's like so it would be great if you could post up some photos and/or a video of it in use.

I'm also very interested in the new HUD system, it's one of the options we are looking to select.
Out of interest, I noticed that if you select the HUD option on the new Jaguar XE you have to also select the solar attenuating windscreen option, but this is not a requirement with the Evoque?
RE: Incontrol Apps - MartinP - 06-01-2015 01:12pm
If you select the HUD on the Evoque you will also need to add the solar glass.

Yeap I asked the same question but I love my heated windscreen more than HUD, so it was off the list.

Thanks, the online configuration tool doesn't mandate this, but reading through the forum it doesn't look like the online configuration tool is that accurate.

The Heated windscreen is an option I could never do without again!
