Heads Up Display (HUD) supports Chrome, Firefox, and Safari. HUD will also work in other browsers, but we can only guarantee support for Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.
Activate Heads Up Display

If the site selector menu on our HUD activation page does not take you to the homepage of the domain or subdomain where you are trying to install HUD, try using the bookmark activation method instead (below).
