Tubes and Main display selection

[CHP]

Hi, just wonder what is everybody's favourite tube selection.

Visually, I really like the 5 tube design but information are kind of redundant (I have HUD). It's fun on shorter drives but usually use map (Porsche navigation) with two tubes (right showing navigation) and Waze via AppleCar play on centre display. Thought I would make more use of widgets but usually map is set full screen. Anyone able to use passenger screen beyond music/album display while driving alone?

Passenger screen: I didn't read the fine print. I was hoping passenger screen would work independently allowing second AppleCar play. Obviously not so kids are using either my AppleCar play (they are not mature enough to enjoy my music library) or Amazon music from Porsche (now scattered all over with their playlists). Any recommendations? Also toggling between radio, Apple car play and Porsche entertainment is not ideal (touch icon could be larger IMHO). Any recommendations? I use Siri for telephone (works reliable), Porsche AI for music however is a mixed bag for me.

Lost me on the word “tube” … not fluent in Porsche speak yet …probably never will be 🫪

Right tube scrolling Spotify playlist, central 3D Assisted Driving View, left battery and range.
However, with the correct widgets, the battery and range is not really required so I really must find a more useful item to display. I have the HUD so don’t need the nav on screen.
I wondered how useful the traffic light icon would be in the HUD - discovered yesterday that it does have its uses !

On the Cayenne EV, “Tube Selection” controls the layout and content of the circular-style display areas—called “tubes”—in the digital instrument cluster behind the steering wheel.

Porsche retained the traditional multi-gauge Porsche look in the Cayenne Electric, but the gauges are now configurable OLED display zones. You can choose a more minimal layout or multiple tubes and decide what information appears in them.

How configurable are the widgets on the Flow Display? I haven't seen a video explaining this part.

Like you, I have HUD so I personally don't find the 3D Assisted Driving View helpful. Reason I have direction in right tube is for more complex junctions on motorways. Left tube is the one I am struggling with, would prefer analogue clock with temperature (don't have chrono). yes, traffic light does have it uses but not prominent enough.

Quite difficult to explain, little bit like widgets on iPhone but sizes of tiles are predetermined. Haven't used them enough for final verdict. I configured them first day so guess I need to rearrange, you have three sets.

Very configurable - there is a video in the manual section of My Porsche but there is also one on YouTube. This one has setting up the widgets -

If you haven't seen all the Porsche Spot On Cayenne EV instructional videos then they are worth looking at prior to collection. You can access all the Spot On videos from here - this one is the initial set up of the Cayenne EV.

I really only have the 3D as I am spoilt for choice !
