I find it very tedious to perform a simple adjustment on the sound tune such as bass

    I find that Toyota has dropped the ball on the basic stuff...I owned the Prius for 3 months and I find it very tedious to perform a simple adjustment on the bass or treble setting especially if you are playing SPOTIFY in carplay. You have to exit out of the carplay and go into the Toyota menus then the settings and on and on...Is there an easier way to do it besides using the voice command?

    If you like to adjust your bass on the fly, you're out of luck. It seems to be a one-for-all setting.
    I got a nice Sony head unit when my stereo died on my Gen 3.

    The migration to completely unusable controls is relentless. If I’m driving somone else’s car, I don’t even entertain using the “entertainment system”.

    Heat/vent controls, that a couple of decades back could be adjusted easily, without ever taking your eyes off the road, are now a dangerously distracting mess.
