Avin Avant 4 Screen Dimming

[Kcalhoun27]

Can anyone tell me how to get this piece of crap to dim? Ive searched and people keep saying there is an app that will help but never give a name or any more info. The dimmer settings on the unit do absolutely nothing and its not very safe. Or if the screen can be turned off temporarily for night driving, ill go that route as well
Any help is much appreciated

I won't be near my car to check till tomorrow night, but I just went to the Google app store and googled "dimmer" I think I picked the first result or the one with the highest ratings and it works well. I will say it's rather annoying to have to back out of android auto at night in order to access the dimmer button from the home app screen. If no one else chimes in I'll get a picture of the app.

You can assign the right knob button as the screen shutoff.

Ha, thanks but credit goes to Steetz from bimmerforums. Glad I could direct you his way. Wish we had more useful resources for our Avin tho

Has anyone figured out how to to have the keys dim with the dimmer dial? My old POS Xtrons unit was able to do that so I'm kind of surprised that not only does the screen not dim with the dial, but neither do the buttons. Seriously thinking about sending this pile back and retro-retro-fitting a business CD unit + bluebus and call it a day.
