What are you iDrive shortcuts set to?
Curious how everyone is using these, beyond a NAV Address and phone number. What do you currently have yours set to?

Are you guys talking about the 1-8 buttons? I'm old-school i guess. They are all XM Channels for me.

I didn't realise they could be used for anything other than radio stations, I'll be adding a few useful shortcuts at the weekend

Also they are touch sensitive, so if you just put you finger on the button (but don't press it) it will tell you what "action" it is set to. Very cool feature!

Go to whatever option you want to set it to and long press the button. I think there’s a progress bar on top of the iDrive screen till the setting gets stored to the button? I can’t remember for sure since I set it long ago when I got the car.
