Changed my home screen all around about a month after picking the car up but I have since changed it back to what it was and am happy with that.
The widgets that I liked the most from playing around with them were the traffic flow that shows congestion / delays when you have a destination in the Nav and the Drive Recorder one. I put the traffic flow one in as a split screen with my main Nav/Map screen and I am still considering putting the Drive Recorder onto my main screen to make it easier to trigger if I ever need it. Favorites Buttons: I use Carplay music, Carplay phone contacts and my home destination the most - a couple of radio stations and climate sync from time to time. |

I've got my Drive Recorder set to button 1 just in case something happens. I want to be able to quickly make sure it recorded. I haven't decided what to put on the rest of the buttons yet.

You can hold the panoramic view button to initiate screen recording!

PROG buttons:
1. Presets (all radio stations AM/FM/Satellite in the order I’m most likely to listen…allows easy scrolling using the scroll knob on the steering wheel) 2. Climate/Ventilation 3. Split Nav screen & Entertainment 4. Split Nav screen w/Onboard Info 5. Sport Display 6. Vehicle Service/Status (can quickly get to check control messages and service status info and oil check since my BMWs don’t have an oil dip stick 7. Empty (usually use it if on vacay & enter address where I’m staying to quickly find my way back if I get lost) 8. Navigation to home (but with an incorrect name to make a thief question the address)

8. Navigation to home (with a close-by address but not your neighbor's) would be a better choice

I use 1 for instant access to CarPlay and 8 for climate sync.
2 is for audio surround settings but I use that much less frequently now that I’ve found a pretty good all around setting and Apple Music offers lossless quality. All the rest are station presets. |

Off topic: do not believe it is lossless by the time it gets played at your car speakers...
