BuT tHeRe Is VoIcE cOnTrOl!!!

Yes but if I have two friends on board that are talking I won’t say

“SILENCE EVERYONE! I WILL NOW ATTEMPT TO ENTER THE NAVIGATIOM DESTINATION THREE TIMES WHICH WILL ALL FAIL!”

And zooming the map on skodas with touch screens is just THE WORST.

To be honest zooming isn’t great on my 2010 yeti with a physical zoom wheel either.

These systems are always crap in cars because compared to modern phones they feel unbelievably slow; my yeti is now 14 years old but my phone is 2 years old so it’s a pretty unfair comparison!

Well at some point I expect zooming a map to work without lag. I assumed we were talking about new cars here.

Our other car is a 9 year old Mercedes and physical zoom is super nice there.

The actual issue on the Skoda is not that it doesn’t zoom smoothly but that it stops following your car when you zoom. It instead stayes fixed.

I don’t disagree, just pointing out a general issue with car nav systems
