Default Cancelling the "accept" screen

Maybe everyone knew this but me...

I commute on my bike every day, that's hundreds of times a year pushing in the same spot to "accept", I worried about the wear there.

Turns out the arrow button on the right switch housing will do the same thing.

Yea, I knew that but keep forgetting to use it. You can control most of the radio functions with the buttons if you know which one to press.

I rarely touch my screen anywhere and perform most functions with the buttons. It's easier when riding. Of course everyone is different.

Buddy of mine runs his GPS zoomed so far out you can barely tell what street his on. But that's how he likes it.

I never touch the screen. Everything can be done with the joystick/buttons...No need to take your hands off the grips.

I personally would like to bypass that "Accept" thing completely --- and never see it again

Me neither.

I've said the same numerous times over the past 22 months.

almost everything-I've found when doing a route, when add a change that goes over unpaved road, a warning that comes up has an "OK" that need to press screen, then there is another warning with "OK" that needs screen pressed again.

I also always use joysticks, but seems everytime it sets me aback when I see the warning still present, after I already toggled OK.
