Default Infotainment Split Screen

Is there a way to customize the information displayed in the split screen display setting on the Infotainment screen? I would like to have the sound system on the left and Waze on the right, but the system appears to default to sound system/built-in navigation.

I agree it would be nice to be able to split the infotainment screen to have the car's information on one side and Android Auto/CarPlay on the other side however I haven't found a way to do that.

No way to currently customize that because it's controlled by Android Auto/CarPlay. You could submit a recommendation to the app creator but I don't think that can be changed by GM.

You could leave Waze on the main screen and put the sound info on the right hand DIC screen.

How visible is the infotainment screen when there's bright sunlight outside? Thanks

I've had zero visibility issues and I drive my coupe with the top off as much as possible.

AndroidAuto supports split screens now. The app has to support it, but I know Google Maps, Pandora, Spotify and Waze all support it. The wife likes it as she can now skip songs on Pandora as a Passenger even while I have the map up. When it's just me, I prefer the Maps/Waze in full screen and have the audio info in the right DIC area.

Android Auto can split the screen but you can only split the screen for apps that are in Android Auto. What would be useful is to have access to the car's information in one of the split screens but I don't believe that is possible, at least on the current C8s. It would be a nice upgrade.
