This has been discussed in other model forums, but did not see one specific to the TX.

When using Android Auto, is there any possible way to have better access to Lexus infotainment and controls? In my vehicle when my wife connects to Apple CarPlay the Lexus side menu is still available, but not visible when using Android Auto via my Google Pixel 10 Pro. In some versions of Android Auto that I've seen posted in RX forums, there is a down arrow in the top left that gets you to Lexus infotainment with one click. In my current vehicle using Android Auto, the only way to get to Lexus infotainment is pressing at least 3 times-- twice to get to the Android Auto App Drawer and then a final click of the Lexus icon.

Any advice? Thanks!

 

I have the down arrow in my 500H.

 

Our 2026 automatically connects Android when you start the car I see no way to turn it off and revert to the Lexus display short of turning off the car and Bluetooth on my phone then restarting.
