Smart Shortcuts

By observing and learning driver behaviors, patterns, and preferences, the system anticipates driver actions and presents on-screen suggestions to help perform desired actions quicker and with fewer steps.


  • The app will suggest actions based on what it learns you do often, and occasionally make recommendations based on your learned preferences.
  • The system will take some time to learn. The more you interact with the system, the more suggestion you will see, and the more accurate they will become.
  • Suggestions will automatically refresh periodically to provide updated content for each profile.
  • You can also provide feedback on whether a suggestion is helpful by pressing and holding on it. This can help the app grow smarter over time.
  • To change the notifications behavior for Smart Shortcuts:
  1. Select Options on the Smart Shortcuts screen.
  2. Select Suggestion Settings.
  3. Select an option.
Detail
The app also supports different profiles for each user, with customized learning for each profile. The app will also learn to associate a profile to a user over time based on key fob and connected phone data.

    • When a long route is set in your navigation system, you can receive recommendations for gas stations and places to stop at along the way.
    • The places you frequently navigate to while using the embedded navigation system will be suggested as shortcuts.
    • Save your home location in the embedded navigation app to have a shortcut suggestion for it when you’re away from home.
  • Radio Suggestions: When selected, the corresponding radio app (FM, AM, or SiriusXM®) will open and it will start playing the station.
    • From radio apps you can receive:
      - FM, AM, SiriusXM®: Most frequently listened stations you may like to play next.
      - FM, SiriusXM®: Genre-based suggestions.
    • Considerations:
      - FM suggestions will appear only when they are within range, according to your vehicle’s tuner signal.
