Default Nav Command

Some may already know this but for the ones that don't...

From any screen on the BOOM!, you can push the voice command button and say... "Enter City" (providing you're in the correct state) and it will pop up and it will enter the city (sometimes it gives you a choice of options)...When it asks you for the address simply push OK and it will start navigation to the town you requested.

You DO NOT have to enter an address...This all the while flying down the road
Works well, very simple...

Good to know. Now if only it would understand my non accented english I will be fine. Funny I get compliments on how clean my accent is and no one can tell where I am from. There isn't a robot on this planet that can understand me (Siri, Cortana, Uconnect, Boom, stupid Rico answering services). My wife has a Filipino accent and her phone understands everything she says.

Perhaps I should start pretending to have an accent. I can do a great southern accent. My Indian accent and Chinese accent is amazing as well.

Default Time/temp

When I have the navigation screen up the temperature is displayed in the bottom right of the screen, when on audio I have the time in the bottom left corner. Is it possible to have time and temp displayed all the time?
I have a 2016 Ultra Limited

I don't think so...at least not on the audio screen. I've thought the same thing...I just push the right hand "Vehicle Info" button and get the temp when in audio.
