Thought I'd make a new topic to see what feature requests we'd might like to see.

For me, the number 1 would be that the rear wiper when turned on does intermittent wipe, not constant wipe. A simple software change.

If anyone knows the best way to send these to Smart that would be nice.

I'd like user configurable indicator noise loaded by file through usb, give us the file type and size limit in kB and seconds.

I'd like different map styles for the navigation and a 3d driving view more akin to what sygic gives you.

I'd like a list of usable voice commands.

I'd like it if the driver monitor could realise that when the steering wheel spoke is infront of the camera and blocking it's view not to bother warning us! Poor logic in the programming the steering wheel will have an angle sensor in it, the car should know when the spokes are in the way!

I 'third' the request for intermittent rear wiper setting. Having to manually operate it every 30 seconds in bad weather is not cool.

I sort of second the request for the indicator noise. It went from obnoxiously loud to too quiet and I've found myself leaving it on in some situations.

Colour blind option. 1 in 10 are colour blind and much of your important UI components are tiny and in weird colours.

In fact I'd like to request a simpler UI option on the main screen. Why is the majority of the screen taken up by cartoons that do nothing? Why are the buttons on the main screen so small they can only be operated successfully when stationary. It should not take great effort to try and find the speed or the time on a car display. Clear, larger buttons and readouts please and leave the hippy nonsense an option.

Quite funny coming from the Honda e, a lot of owners complained about the low resolution interface with big buttons on the screen (totally customisable layout to suit you) to me it made perfect sense, tiny details on a high res screen may technically be admired on a static computer or tablet, but on a moving item like a car simple to select options make much more sense, given the direction NCAP are heading towards physical buttons, then clearly simple uncluttered interfaces should be an option for owners to select and be given the choice.

I would like the indicated way Blue line and White arrows to not go Disco Crazy when the map sometimes comes in an out when using the SatNav, its very distracting.

I would like something to pop out and poke me in the ribs when I remove the charging cable and leave the cover off and charging doo open. ;-)

`I would like to control the Demisting of the mirrors separately, without having to demist on the rear window, wasting precious electrons.

They would be fantastic if in the pop-up settings menu you could customise some of the instant access features. I find quite irritating to have to turn off settings by diving into deep submenus whilst driving. Being able to send options to this pop-up menu would be handy.

I regularly turn off the lane assist using this feature because I find it makes the smart pilot lane assist more aggressive. Both feeds are turned on at the same time.
