Two quick questions on the tech

Hi

Really quick two questions. I can't find how to do these things in the manual.

How do I change the look of the home screen so I can add the "Take me home" button?

And

Where do I find the settings for the part of the audio system that allows the front passengers to hear the rear passengers better and vice a versa?

Thanks

Josh

You can change the shortcuts on the Home Screen by pressing the SETUP button (LH side menu, second from top) and then SYSTEM and HOME SCREEN SHORTCUTS. You can only have three so you need to un-highight what you don't want to make room for what you do.

TAKE ME HOME is near the end of the list and after you highlight it it appears on the Home Screen list.

My car doesn't have Conversation Assist so I can't help on that one I'm afraid.

Josh,

Is conversation assist an option or a standard item?

I went for a test drive in a SVR today (will jot down my thoughts in a new post tomorrow) and asked the dealer about conversation assist. He had no idea about it Sad

Conversation Assist only comes with the high-end Meridian audio system. I like the feature but it's not reason enough to spend £4k on it. The excellent sound quality, the best I've ever heard in a car, is.

Depending on how many options you have installed, the Take MeHome button may be squeezed out, especially if you have InControl Apps.

VP, will be interested in your impressions of the SVR. Hope you were able to test it somewhere to give it the beans... Mark

Ahh the issue may be I have the incontrol apps. No don't have the option home screen shortcuts. That is pretty poor programming in my humble opinion.

Thanks for the other comments re conversation assistance. I dont have the 4k system so that explains that.

Thanks all.

Well, that's InControl Apps for you. A geekish flight of fancy which fails to deliver. Can't really see what you can do with it that you can't do on the iPhone which needs to be attached. The user interface is glacially slow. If there was an easy way to remove it, I would. Mark

Agree. Don't even need it to control the music from my iPhone. I have the apple Watch and Siri plays what I want.

Yes I am a geek Smile

Sorry, didn't mean you're the geek. I can imagine someone in JLR promoting it as the Next Best Thing and it's fallen way short of useful. Mark
