About GW2hud for Guild Wars 2

GW2hud displays live completion progress, WvW stats, and more on your Android device while you play Guild Wars 2. GW2hud displays the same beautiful Guild Wars 2 status screens created by ArenaNet for high-end gaming keyboards. It's completely free with no ads.

This app requires a plugin to be installed on the PC running Guild Wars 2. Visit http://gw2hud.com/ from your computer to download it.

FAQ:

1. How does it work?

Guild Wars 2, like many other MMORPGs, outputs live status displays for gaming keyboards. These displays are sent by the Guild Wars 2 application to a DLL provided by your keyboard manufacturer. The GW2hud plugin provides an alternative DLL that sends the status output to an Android device running the GW2hud app instead. The display images are transmitted directly from your computer to your Android device over your home network.

2. Will this get me banned?

No it will not. All the displays are provided by ArenaNet and presented as-is and no modifications are made to Guild Wars 2 at all. GW2hud is not affiliated with ArenaNet in any way though.

3. Is it really free?

GW2hud is completely free and does not contain ads. I saw a cool video of the beautiful keyboard displays Guild Wars 2 is capable of and decided to see if this was possible for my own use. It worked so well that I wanted to share it with everyone. However, if you like it please consider donating using the optional Donate button in the app. I have gems I need to buy!

4. What are the system requirements?

The GW2hud plugin works on Windows XP, Vista, 7, & 8, both 32 & 64-bit systems.

The GW2hud Android app requires Android 2.3 Gingerbread or newer.

Your Android device needs to be connected to the same network (via WiFi) as the computer running Guild Wars 2. Your computer does not need to be on WiFi if it is connected to the same network as your Android.

5. Does your app sell my account to gold farmers? Does it invade my privacy?

No. GW2hud does not collect any usernames, passwords, email addresses nor any other personal information. It does not display any ads, nor install any toolbars or spyware. The Android app does contain Flurry Analytics for general usage stats, but has all location gathering turned off. Feel free to inspect our Android permissions on Google Play before you install. GW2hud only uses internet, wifi, & billing permissions (for the donate button).

The app cannot detect my computer running GW2.. installed plugin dy.

Y70%

Chnages the old phone in to a neat trinket. Not essential but it did just save my life. Being able to monitor my health while I was cleaning up some vomit in another room was great. (Long story)

Y70%
by Y####:

I like this app a lot.. But I wonder if it would possible to show your chat in the phone. Now that I would like

V70%
by V####:

Neat info that updates quickly. Would be more useful if tablets showed a bunch of stuff at once rather than one small screen.

Y70%
by Y####:

Does what my keyboard does but prettier

K70%

The app cannot detect my computer running GW2.. installed plugin dy.

Y70%
by Y####:

Pretty much what my title says. The app was never able to connect to my PC, and it permanently disbled the nifty LCD Applet that used to run on my Logitech G510S with the GE2 info. Now I don't have it in monochrome either. Yuppie Doo.

by Y####:

It would not let connect even when I followed what I had to do

S70%

Just is missing some design love right now, but I love that this exists, this is what anet promised to do, before release even

I give four stars for the concept but the app currently will not work on my phone, hopefully it will patch soon

B70%

Such a simple, but brilliant app. Nice work on this!

Q70%
by Q####:

App never makes it past an error screen decreeing that it is being forced to close.

Q70%
by Q####:

Great

S70%
by S####:

Thanks

F70%
by F####:

The idea behind the app is great but it lacks any functionality. It requires a game running and doesn't provide any info you can't get with one button push while playing. As it currently stands it has no value

L70%
by L####:

Great app just hope for multi screens to range advantage of the larger screens

Y70%
by Y####:

The app is well made, communicates instantly, and works well, it just doesn't really do anything that cool. It does let you clear up the screen a bit, and I guess if you had an old phone it could be convenient enough to have it be the permanent display for this. Still leaving 5 stars because it works well and does what it says, regardless of its utility.

Q70%
by Q####:

Very well done! Its not going to save your life, help you level or up your game, but it's nice having the info at your fingertips. Works brilliantly.

Q70%
by Q####:

Works great on my Motorola Photon. Is there a way to add achievement progress tabs? That would make this great app even better. Keep up the good work.

C70%
by C####:

Alas, this shows you stats that can be acquired by a simple key press.

R70%

Great work!

Q70%

Thank you for this, it's awesome.

Q70%
by Q####:

It would be nice if the uninstall did uninstall every thing and restored system settings, the game will keep crashing until a system restore. Promising but not recommended

T70%
by T####:

Great idea for a guild wars accessory, but its incomplete. It runs slow and has a few very basic but annoying errors.

The app on my phone is stuck Searching for a computer which is running GW2. I have the plugin installed and GW2 is running but it can't find it.

M70%
by M####:

The app works great, but the computer plug in crashes my computer and I'm not sure if it messes with Guild Wars 2 files or not, but even uninstalled the game still crashes. I'm forced to do a system restore. I really want to like this app, but it is causing me more pain than promise.

Q70%
by Q####:

Would love some full screen action, or displaying X amount of panels on a tablet screen

G70%
by G####:

Great app just hope for multi screens to range advantage of the larger screens

Y70%
by Y####:

Works great! One request: can the image be scaled to the screen? I run this on my 10" tablet, and the tiny image wastes a lot of space and causes me to squint some.

U70%
by U####:

Love the app! Would LOVE to see Daily/Monthly completion details as on of the panels. I'd use that more than anything else, for sure.

T70%
by T####:

Good idea. Wish all these gw2 apps could combine into one killer app.

Q70%
by Q####:

This app only shows map completion for your current zone, and for then world. As for stats, I didn't notice it updating fast enough to make having the information displayed matter. It would be nice if it utilized more screen space, and had some more features.

U70%
by U####:

I guess it's supposed to be stupid simple to setup and get running but doesn't work, and developers website offers nothing in ways of troubleshooting.

Q70%
by Q####:

If you are going for 100% and you want ease your way to map completion, this is one great app. Forget about pressing M constantly to check your progress, just look at your phone and that's it. The app does exactly what it describes. Thanks!

A70%
by A####:

This app has come in handy quite often. I even like how I can see my characters stats from my phone . Great job!

Z70%

Yikes The app works great, but the computer plug in crashes my computer and I'm not sure if it messes with Guild Wars 2 files or not, but even uninstalled the game still crashes. I'm forced to do a system restore. I really want to like this app, but it is causing me more pain than promise.
