Features are locked out while driving
Certain features that might cause distraction while you’re driving are not available while the vehicle is in motion. These are usually features that would require you to type something on the screen, like entering an address in Google Maps. Depending on your model, the features may be unavailable even if you have a passenger in your front seat. Instead, try using your vehicle’s Voice Assistant features.
