SMS Audio Notifications - Modify Header

[vegasdood]

So, I have surrendered to not using Android Auto because it wants to force me to turn on location services...and, if I don't it still puts a 1/3rd gray screen placeholder...so, on my 26 Lobo, via Bluetooth and using Google's SMS app, a popup screen shows up when I get a text and if I hit play, the audio voice articulates the entire message header down to the seconds which is sort of ridiculous. I looked in the app and also in the Mav settings and could not find anything....does anyone know how to truncate the sms audio playback so maybe it just says who it is from?

It seems there is no way to modify the header so I just had to turn off audio notifications.

In my 2024 that is what I did. I don't care about texts when driving. I know I am old but they are a convenience for me when I am not moving. I have family that said "what if it's an emergency I text you?" My reply was "if it is a true emergency dial 911, if you think it is an emergency notification I need then call me. I do not read nor answer texts while driving even sitting at a stop light. I used Android auto in my Silverado for navigation and it took over the screen so I don't use it in the Maverick. Luckily I have the old navigation in the Maverick that does not require a subscription.
