The one asking the user to make noise as loud as you want the volume to be made me laugh but it does have a hidden feature... It will never be lower than ambiant noise. Perhaps a desireable feature?
- fiddlerwoaroof 5y agoSome sort of “set to X decibels louder than ambient noise” feature would be pretty amazing, actually.

- slacktide 5y agoMy car does this and it's annoying as crap. Luckily it is easily disabled. Audi calls it GALA - "Graduated Audio Level Adjustment."
- fiddlerwoaroof 5y agoI would think the best version would just be a button you push when you want to adjust the volume to a “reasonable” level. I agree that continuously varying the volume would be annoying.
- Sebb767 5y agoIn my VW it's linked to the car speed and I would not want to give this away. Turning the volume up and down when entering the highway or a slow stretch was really annoying on my old car.
- acomar 5y agoit's also remarkably intuitive. like I laughed and then realized that would be a fairly pleasant way to control the volume for anyone with decent vocal control.
- runawaybottle 5y agoIt made me laugh too, but imagine if you were blind. Would be about as simple as it would get to set the volume in that case.
- _tom_ 5y agoCame here to advocate for this feature. You need to be able to set a minimum volume, so quiet sounds are audible over the current level of background noise.
