I've noticed that things like carplay and nav running in the main home screen tend to slow responsiveness, so it occurred to me today to disable the "hello ID" feature - unless they've got a dedicated processor optimized for that sort of thing (and they might, it's not a new idea) then there's a good bit of potential overhead there. So I disabled it and it seems more responsive. Scrolling, etc was less laggy than I'm accustomed to and I experienced no carplay dropouts.

No idea if this is placebo or not, so I'd love to see if anyone else has a similar experience.

Oof, that would kinda suck if true. I mainly use it to open and close the sunblind.

Definitely need more people to test. You can still hit the voice button too, though carplay takes over that if connected.
Actually with Car-Play running, if you short press the voice button you get the ID Voice. Long press and you get Siri. At least that is how it is working with my ID.4 and iPhone.

Ohh this is a good idea. I am going to try it. And I will report back.
I've only used HelloID for navigation and that is pretty spotty on whether she understands me and gets the nav going faster then I can just do it if I pulled over and typed it in (with CarPlay)

I constantly get Radio or Climate unavailable when starting the car. Why would the car need time to warm up the climate or radio functions? I wonder if disabling HelloID would speed that up processing.

I've disabled HelloID as well, I'm hopeful this helps.

Like evBeliever, I get the Radio/Climate/Everything unavailable when starting the car, for a very long time. Hopefully this fixes that as well, or at least helps.

I removed the built in NAV from the screen and that helped A LOT (I use Google/Apple/ABRP Nav anyway) no lag now and I still have Hello ID. Just passing along should it work for you.

I'll definitely try this, especially since my car probably only recognizes "hello ID" like 50% of the time anyway, so it's not very useful for me when I can activate it way more quickly with the button on the wheel.

I can't tell if it's faster, but I never use the voice trigger, and rarely use the button, (except to activate google assistant.) Makes me feel better about it just with the faint hope that things are working more smoothly. :p

It feels like the moment you disable hello ID it free's some ram. So the system gets snappier. When you re enable hallo ID the system stays snappy and doesn't effect the quickness anymore. Feels like it needs some code cleanup

I'm using the voice button more lately then outright yelling hello Id 😂

I've had the voice activation off for several days and I still saw some buggyness. I noticed some of the widgets went blank which I never noticed before disabling helloID. I have a feeling it didn't do anything. 😒
