  • Screens are brighter for the pcm screen and passenger screen
  • MUCH faster and more responsive
  • Looks great and significantly more polished
  • Minor various other changes like the way Homelink pops up
  • It has spotify
  • Someone had said CarPlay would work on both screens, it only works on the main as before

Is that HomeLink button in the lower right of the screen (above the “…” button) always present? That would let me free up a diamond button for a different purpose…
That already shows up on my car (when I’m near my house) that has NOT been updated. I don’t program any buttons for Homelink as a result.

Interesting. My car (2021 4S) pops up a panel (that covers much of the screen) asking if I want to activate the opener when I get close to the stored location. And the ParkAssist/backup camera display covers that HomeLink panel so I can’t close the garage door after backing out unless I explicitly close the ParkAssist panel. It annoyed me so much I cleared the GPS location for the garage door and assigned a diamond button for Homelink….

Close that Homelink panel and see if the icon shows up in the bottom right corner. Maybe it’s a feature of my FEB 22 build???

my favorite part of this update is access to music in the lower screen. Because Porsche doesnt have any controls outside of volume on the screen, you have to be in the media option on the main screen to make changes. If you are using NAV or a map route, toggling back and forth is such a terrible user experience. Well done that they fixed this!

Huh? The only lower screen button I have for music is the 🎵 icon

Nope, just opens it
which you then can this control with the tracking in the lower screen...poor design - should be a simple pull down with play/pause/fwd/bk - no biggie; just need to reset my expectations!

I believe this works if you only program one opener. Once I added a second opener, the diamond did not work.

Uhh yes it does. Under where "Sync" is there will be a hamburger you can drag down.

If you have CarPlay connected a shortcut to that also shows up next to the cogwheel icon.

Also you can use a two-finger drag up or down on the "trackpad" area to change volume instead of the -/+ buttons at the bottom there if you're so inclined. :p

That’s true - but we have only one opener programmed so it’s fine for our needs right now.

uhhhh...no, it doesn't (Note MY picture). No hamburger in my version. No fries either.
