I concur with you regarding gamification. When I am aware of the gamification it fills me with exhaustion to annoyance to extreme frustration. This is especially true of things that I want to use for one purpose. I also think some of the car sensors (Subaru especially) that are trying to make you safer are notoriously bad. I also find the random “coffee break” notice on Subarus frustrating. My personal examples: “eyes on the road” - triggered frequently by one pair of sunglasses I have, looking left to check blind spot, checking mirrors, etc. “Hands on the steering wheel” - triggered occasionally on long drives when I have been giving input, but very light input. | ||

I drove one of our Kia Niro EVs that we have at work recently, and it started warning me to take a break about fifteen minutes into the drive. I'd barely left the yard, certainly hadn't made it across town. It went off when I actually did stop for a coffee, but went on again 15 minutes after I left the car park. I have to say its various combinations of bings and bongs and beeps were about the most distracting thing I've ever experienced in a vehicle. | ||
