Gesture Control?
Do you use it regularly/replacing traditional adjustments?
I did for a while but went back to the old school way again, just find it to be more precise less of a lag affect.

Usually just use it to turn volume up/down or mute when needed.
However, I guess I talk with my hands because a lot of times when I'm driving with my wife next to me I end up changing the radio station by accident. Also, a lot of the times when either reaching to put the car into reverse or reaching to downshift since I always use that setting, I find myself accidentally muting the radio...I guess the way my hand is when I reach for the shifter is close enough to the gesture control for muting. |

I use it to skip songs but that's about it.
It's annoying when there is someone in the front seat who uses their hands to speak. So I've sometimes just turned it off. |

I’ve turned it off as well.
I was constantly muting and such when reaching around the cabin. The buttons on the right side of the steering wheel work just as well, if not better. It was cool at first, but it’s too glitchy for daily use. |

In my '20 M5, I loved it. In my M8, it's glitchy. I still use it for mute, dismiss and most of the time volume but answering a call or rewinding a track is too hit and miss.

I just use it to pause the music and to turn off the display to occasionally wipe off the finger prints. My son finds it hilarious to give the peace sign and stop the sound.

Not sure if anyone else has noticed but volume/up down via gesture is the quicker volume setting vs the steering wheel (takes more time via pressing) or heaven forbid the volume knob which is just flat out ridiculous. One quick gesture control and I'm at 40% plus for the B&W. Either other option just takes longer to get to the same goal. |
