Release notes do not state v9 reduces the customization capabilities and places the map permanently at the top.

Yanno, it may sound odd, but I took an informal poll at SCs during the last 2 longer road trips this year. Easily 80% of those *owners* with whom I spoke, and I spoke to a surprising number of them (in years past, there have been more tumbleweeds at SCs than cars - not so this year), were not aware of or did not follow either TMC or the Tesla.com fora, nor Electrek.co, nor much in the popular press.
Pairing? What's that?
ESA? What's that?
AP? Yeah, I don't use it.
And the list goes on.
These people, why, they must have lives or something *wry chuckle*
Point being that unless it's in the car, the penetration via direct email and traditional media is quite a bit lower than I would have expected. Every now and then I have to remind myself that forum regulars, well, we are very much in the minority now in TeslaWorld.
It's not just the camera as I posted in other places it's everything! Every app that I want to use is forced to the bottom of the screen which is not ideal when the bottom of the screen is by my right knee.

Actually very simple. I want what we lost for safety reasons. That includes:
1. Run ANY two apps of my choosing simultaneously and visible on the screen.
2. Let me choose the position of those apps on the screen.
3. Let me choose to make any 1 app of my choosing full screen.
If you want to add UI enhancements give us tabbed browsing to run multiple web pages at the same time.
Thank you.

All of these would be nice but I'm willing to give up a few things:
#1 - Absolutely needed - I'm not willing to give this up.
#2 - I would be satisfied if the only the Nav or Camera were able to be on top since these are the ones I need to fully see with a quick glance without moving my right knee and right arm.
#3 - I would be satisfied if the Nav was the only app able to be full screen

You're right. Don't use the climate control, don't switch between music/radio and phone, don't do this don't do that and no, you're not required to do anything but look at the road and steer the car. You always had to look away to do things, but you didn't have to look down to the bottom of the screen. Please don't respond to this, you clearly want to argue and I do not.

I agree and do not like that these features were broken in V9:
- no more two windows of your choosing
- no more placement of windows of your choosing
- no more menu at top of screen, bottom menu on vertical screen makes no sense and more unsafe
-
One of the hackers that knows these things has said that Tesla has implemented anti-roll back features into the components. He also said that it may be possible to roll back to a different version that is in the same "family version".
9.0.1 - Non Rewrite. UI based options.
Please:
Please:
- Allow button to "Flip the UI". So "Apps" are on top, nav on bottom. This isn't a rewrite, it is just the layout. This will allow camera at top.
- Make Camera Button next to controls instead of Music. This isn't a rewrite. Just UI. Music is an "App". Camera is a safety feature.
- Allow setting to "Pin" the Camera. So after timeout of a non-used app such as phone or music. it goes back to the camera. (Phone and Music can be controlled on the steering wheel and on Driver UI. - Camera can't).

If you do not like your ideas evaluated, do not present them for evaluation.
Because body modules are updated sometimes as well, a firmware reversion is.... Undesireable. You'd need to reflash each body modules as well, and do it successfully. Service centers can do it, under direct instruction from each engineering case. But a rollback is not an option under normal circumstances.
I didn't. If I want them evaluated, I'll ask for it, after having assessed the expertise of the person from whom I'm requesting an evaluation.
Please cite your legal expertise in the field of automobile accident liability in the United States and the precedent(s) that indicate manufacturer responsibility for non-driving vehicle features.
Yes, but they will tell you otherwise. They do not want 200,000 appointments being set up to roll back software updates.
