Pip problem

Mikescotland

Can anyone guide me please.
I don't want double pip. Just want one.
Now navigator is set to Maps. But I want to be able to switch the app in the PiP window to Sygic at my will.
Screen with "help" is not really helpful at all. I added sygic to the app bar on the left. Tapping it, sygic opens in fullscreen.

You can use one-click switching for large plugins or PIP.
Go to Settings - Desktop Layout - scroll to the bottom, Advanced Settings - Cycle Large Plugin Order Adjustment, and toggle the switch.
Then, on the main interface, press the home button to cycle through the order you have set.

There is also a floating control that allows you to customize the functions you click on, which can be used to switch plugins, open any app, such as Bluetooth phone, etc.
The path is in Settings - More Features - White Dot.

there are 3 PiP "buttons" you can configure for instant use, adding them to your navbar icon list at the bottom of screen.

IE -
(1)sygic/youtube
(2)sygic/navradio
(3)sygic/spotify

it's a little confusing because when you have dual PiP, an icon will be available on your map navigation widget at the bottom that will give the function to have another PiP when you select it from that widget

picasso1850 thanks, works. Confusing as f**. I'd be rather expecting a widget to choose pip program! Or one more button, toggle PiP

you may also want to create a task with trigger 'ignition on', start APP PiP1,PiP2 or PiP3, whichever you use the most.

Mikescotland Confusing indeed, took me months to figure that one out...and I still don't understand the logic behind it...but once you get over the learning curve, there's no longer a desire to create 'unpraising' youtube videos 😉

picasso1850 no, I still believe for the price they charge, it should not be so buggy.
BTW I'd be glad to see a widget that supports showing standard android widget inside of it.

Mikescotland if only you had bought it last year when it was only 300 USD. Maybe tariffs are the bitch, not the manufacturer

Mikescotland

picasso1850 I don't even want to think how the bugs were when it was 350 USD.
We don't have tarriffs here in the UK from China. They are taking advantage, I couldn't buy any unit with listed price lower than 400 USD as in the checkout was not available to the UK (only US market). The only ones I could buy were over 600 USD for the UK market. Pretty sneaky if you ask (official mekede shop on Ali)

Don`t use dual PIP
use PIP 1,2 and 3 for it.
Add sygic to PIP 1
Add navigator to PIP 2
Add whatever to PIP 3

Add PIP 1,2 and 3 to widget
Tap which ever you want and it will open in PIP for each app you want to use

Mikescotland

dogsfoot now I know! Thanks as well.

dogsfoot when you say "Add PIP 1,2 and 3 to widget" you mean the applications widget, right? Not the map navigation widget.... Just trying to understand if your suggestion is more of a personal configuration preference (IE, my suggestion of adding PiP1,2,3 to navbar vs application widget. thx

Mikescotland

picasso1850 exactly like you said. Added PIP1 and 2 and it's now working!

dogsfoot hmm, how do you get waze icon to be a PiP, lol.

Mikescotland

dogsfoot how did you get phone as a widget? Can't find this is the settings!

dogsfoot

Mikescotland settings, launcher settings, mini widget selection

Mikescotland

dogsfoot got it. Never paid attention to this one as its "iPhone" so ignored as I have android! Thanks

Anyone knows?
Following scenario.

Large widget to set to car with speed
Navigation in the widget set to G maps
I toggle left icon with two arrows to shop maps.

Can't get back in any way to car with speed. Don't know how to turn off the maps.
