oh man. Smart Summon is kind of a joke, mostly because of how unreliable it is to activate - the app probably connects/works about 25% of the time, so little that I just anticipate it not working and don't even try to show it off anymore.This was my attitude with Smart Summon and NoA. Both perform poorly for me so I stopped using them. But it was cool to try it out when it first came out.
If I get into this FSD beta early access, I'll try to use it on a regular basis because I know it's likely my usage is helping development in some way. I don't think using smart summon or NoA is improving either feature at this point.
But NoA? Very useful. Always enabled. I've learned that some settings are just there for show (like no-confirm lane changes by vibrating the wheel - it actually makes it slower to confirm), and that it often makes bad decisions. But that's why I just have a habit of noticing the little blue "I want to change lanes soon" popup, and tap it away if it's not valid. It's excellent for being in the correct lane at the correct time, and great for unfamiliar areas. Just enable confirmations (by means of not enabling no-confirm changes--... wait, is this a triple or quadruple negative now?), and when you see it offer a valid change, tap the drive stick to accept it and do it. It mostly does a great job.
