    On the home screen you can change those 3 overlarge icons by a long press anywhere on the screen which will reveal the options available ( 6 or 7 smaller icons below the 3 large ones ) a long press on your desired icon to highlight then drag up to the large icon to replace, very similar to an iPhone.

    You can add your own photos as background wallpapers, via utility tools and file manager, load up a micro sd card or usb flash drive with your photos and once plugged in access utility tools and then file manager. Once you have located your photos a long press will bring up a sub menu so you can move them to “ local”.
    You can then resize to “ screen “ size and set as wallpaper.
    Unfortunately I haven’t found a way to add as screensaver, would be nice to have without the icons blocking the view, maybe in the future can have like a digital photo frame with your favourite photos changing from time to time ……….. are you listening BYD !! 😀

    Hi Tom From the Seal Hand book page 153
    ION
    ● Function: sterilization, air purification,
    refreshing.
    ● Tap the "ION" button on the A/C
    or green air purification interface to
    inactivate or activate the ION.
    This might be related to the door switch icon on the infotainment screen, from the Seal Hand book, if nobody else knows for sure, I will ask on Friday when I take a Perfomance seal for a test drive.
    From page 125/126 of the Seal owner's handbook
    Door Open Warning (DOW)
    DOW is realized with rear corner mmWave radars installed on both sides of the rear
    bumper. When the vehicle is stationary
    with doors unlocked, the system keeps
    indicators on side mirrors solid on to warn the driver if moving objects, such as
    bicycles or automobiles, approach from behind on an adjacent lane. If the driver
    attempts to open the door at this time, indicators on side mirrors begin to flash
    and a chime sounds.

    Great run through, thanks Tom. Next time you drive can you please spend a bit more time on the binnacle display? The first thing I did (when it became available) on my Model 3 was set the left scroll wheel to adjust the fan speed. You rushed past those type of functions in this video.
    It’s also a shame BYD doesn’t display the simple navigation instructions on the binnacle (ie 200m ->) as an option. It may only work for the BYD Nav, although some cars (like BMW) can display Nav from Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. After all, it’s only software.
    Even better display it on the HUD, but the HUD seems a fairly basic one, so that probably isn’t possible.

      @@LudicrousFeed thanks for the reply Tom. I haven't heard of any options to increase that limit though. Do you lose all of your access when you reach the limit? Hot spotting every time would be quite inconvenient and hard on your phone battery. You're right android auto or carplay are an alternative, but don't support a proper lossless codec which is a bit of a waste.

      @@LudicrousFeed tidal does work on Carplay, but due to the connection used between the phone and the car, the benefits of lossless streaming are basically lost. AptX would get close to as good as it can get but running the software on the infotainment itself is practically the only way to get the best from the audio system.
      Correction: it seems that wired Carplay can support lossless but not wireless Carplay. Not sure what the compatibility would be for android auto though.

    A question Tom, can you use your phone (enabling wifi hot spot) to share your phone data plan with your car ???
    I mean, in the car you can use Spotify app using the data plan of your phone for instance. To do so, you Connect your car to your phone wifi hot spot vía wifi
    I ask this because...maybe BYD can provide you with 1GB of data to use every month the first 1 or 2 years...but once It lasts, it finishes..., the only está to get ingernet connection with your car is through your phone using your phone data plan (creating wifi hot spot)
    Could you clarify this please??
