1 - drive recorder (even though I have a separate front and rear always-on dash cams)
2 - shortcut to carplay
3 - sound settings
4 - mobile devices - if i quickly want to disable carplay to get my phone to connect to my dashcam wifi or home wifi and stay connected! (so irritating)
5 - sports displays
6 - phone number (to dial quickly)
7 - tire pressure monitor
8 - drive recorder (redundant)

I keep changing some of these but 2 is always Carplay in all my cars, and 1+8 are drive recorder.
