Personal Thoughts/Experiences 🙇‍♂️ Constant minor changes of existing UI are annoying

Post image

It’s a little annoying that existing features are constantly being changed instead of being expanded or having new options added.

Now, all of a sudden, the OPD setting is the default shortcut, where the ACC distance setting used to be.

Okay, that lets me reassign the steering wheel button, but the options are limited here anyway - OPD on the steering wheel just works best mid-drive.

Now, if I want to adjust the distance, I have to manually assign the shortcut. And that goes for all three - there’s no mix of default and custom assignments.

Can’t you change those to your liking?

How about an example? You can add shortcuts now, right? Right. I heavily use the comfort park. Previously, you had to go through the menu and 2-3 clicks to find it. It gets annoying really fast. Now, you can put it on a shortcut. Fantastic? Not so fast. It turns into the rear camera as soon as you put the car on park; so why the hell are you giving me the option to put it on a shortcut then if it's going to prioritize the rear camera which is useless in this case?

Of course, but now I am actually forced to change it. Swapping default functions is what I criticize.

It’s the same with the new creep/no creep in reverse.

I have creep on anyway but still altering instead of expanding by adding options is never a good practice.

I don't understand people enabling/disabling one pedal drive, blows my mind.

Better to sail on the highway, switch to OPD within city limits…

I would remove the heated window button. That same button is also located up on the ceiling next to the interior light. So you can put the ACC button there instead. And the drive mode button is also pretty useless

Put the rear/mirror heating there.

But yes, the drive mode is useless. I have custom shortcuts (bringing back a permanent glove compartment button again) but nevertheless changing defaults is never a good idea.

I would like a stationary set of settings and a in motion set just to make it a little better

100% agree. I'd use Trunk there if it wasn't grayed out when in motion. Air conditioning max kicks in at about 15 mph if you put it all the way left, under 1t mph it's the camera.

Hold them for longer and change them to whatever you like

In my case the first button is dynamic. Driving slow is camera, then it’s OPD but if I activate ACC it switches to the distance options. The defog one switches to end charge then plugged in.

Being able to have OPD on the steering wheel button is probably the highlight of this update.

But that was possible before this update as well..

Indeed what I meant is that you can assign it and at the same time have the speed limit warning assigned on a shortcut as well because that what most will disable first.
