i have no idea but surely there's a way. Another reason i don't care for all the different functions/controls on a screen, just more drive distraction imo. I understand its cheaper for the manufactures to use the screens instead of buttons, some like it, some don't. I'll take the buttons. Hope ya get it sorted out.

Totally agree! Dont need any more distractions fiddling around trying to turn on a function.

Also hate Kiosk order machines at resturaunts too. IMO, complicates and slows down the whole process. However, do like self checkouts and (some well designed) App ordering - they actually can help speed up the process IMO.

I hate it, but I find myself just using the voice controls to switch to FM. Most of the time I'm using CarPlay, but when I want to know the traffic or listen to the news, I just hit the sync button and say "Tune to FM 91.5" - I shouldn't have to, but it works well enough that I don't mess around with the buttons any more.

Technology is great sometimes, but I wouldn't like all the buttons on the screen like that. I am so old school that I don't want to use my phone to pay for something. And I hate the idea now that places are going to mobile tickets I want the actual ticket in my hand and not some digital thing on my phone. But unfortunately that's the way it's going.

If you use the radio as the main item (left side of screen) then you should have presets.
Push the home icon at the top left of the screen and use the radio.
