I get it, but this reminds me of how my car doesn't allow my wife (in the passenger seat) to set up bluetooth pairing while I am driving.
Pretty inconvenient during road trips to have to pull off the highway, because the car doesn't trust that it's the passenger working the center console...
- DennisAleynikov 5y agoabsolutely absurd coddling of the end user
- meibo 5y agoI've had enough close calls with people playing with their radio/hvac that I'd rather have everyone pull over to set up Bluetooth than end up in a ditch somewhere
- DennisAleynikov 5y agoits just too agressive for the cases where you do have a passenger. I understand people usually drive alone but its gonna be hard to police this long term unless we start solving the real problems like why are touch screens being used in cars at all??? they are the worst possible ux for maximum distraction!
- fma 5y agoRoad trips? Plural? How many times have you had to pair your bluetooth to your car...
- Closi 5y agoI don't know about you, but I have had to re-pair my bluetooth quite a few times with my car. Sometimes bluetooth just seems to get itself in a state where things won't connect and you have to start again. It happens on pretty much everything with me eventually, be it my bluetooth keyboard with my laptop, my phone and my car, my headphones and iPhone...
