Apex Low Indicator Noise/Daytime Map Issue

[srivatsabs24 (SRIVATSA BS)]

@smridhi.kalati @abhishek.balaji Why is the indicator noise, theft alert, and tow alert sound so low in Apex? It’s barely audible compared to my Series 1. Can this be fixed in the next OTA update?

Additionally, the maps in Apex are barely usable in daytime because they remain in dark mode, especially with live traffic enabled. Due to poor contrast, the maps become unusable altogether during the day. Could you please fix this issue as soon as possible?

I agree.

1. Indicator and all notification sounds are too low
2. Dark mode in bright sunlight makes the screen barely visible
3. The horn - sounds like a TVS scooty! Please bring back the original 450 horn sound level

They might give Day Mode for Other Modes like Eco/Ride/Sport Only

When Using Warp+ They might force UI to use Dark Mode for the Warp + Animation Effect

Even during Night Times, Using Dark will not feel Good imo.

It’s not Apex, they reduced the sound from Gen 3 or 3.1 I guess, cause my 3.1 also has so low sounds compared to my Series 1. There are many comments about this on the forum.

First hand review of 450X Gen2 vs Gen3

I have just purchased a 450X gen3 as a second vehicle for family although I have been using the gen2 for 2.5yrs .My first impression of gen3 vehicle was like first the indicator and park assist sound was so low it was hardly audible so took it to service center but was informed that it’s arai rule of lowering the sound I thought it ok but then if arai has rule of lowering indicator sound then why even keep it the audio option in settings if it’s hardly audible. While I thought that gen 3 is a up…

Also the horn,

@SidG26

Let’s see what the new generation brings.

@ibbi

and for the poor Series 1 owners, they lost the Series 1 special colors and logos as well after the new Atherstack

I asked this last year in the QnA

@SidG26

we’re missing boot-up sound and splash screen. Also the Series 1 accents. Any plans to bring them back? Would be a cool touch.

Here is what they said,

@ryan

So are we! These cute little touches are lower on the priority list for now, but we’ll pass this feedback along to the industrial design team.

They could have added ‘Series 1’ on the new UI like they wrote ‘APEX’ there. Also I feel, the bootup sound of the OG 450 was much better than Gen 2/3.

@power_light2000

are we evolving or going backwards

It’s evolving, just backwards!
