I'm sure this is happening in about 3-5 years from now, but not in your smart phone, but in an augmented reality glasses-like device (we can probably already build demos for this on NReal or Hololens). The HUD is going to be embedded in the real world. People will be able to control what information they show in their profile. I've seen some VR social apps already doing a very basic version of this, albeit in a 100% simulated environment.



There's actually already some open source progress for this at the Eyetap project [0]. Looks like it might be dead though.
