Infotainment "Browse" Function Disabled While Driving

[Elmer Fudd]

Hi guys, i am new but certainly not new to Chev/GMC trucks and SUV's (since 1984). Just brought home a 2021 Tahoe. This is actually my 3rd infotainment system but the first with this feature. The BROWSE touch button on the screen disables and greys out once the truck begins to move. If I touch it I get a message saying it is disabled while driving. I understand this maybe the latest "safety" feature, but it seems silly when there are 17 million other buttons in the SUV that do work while driving.....

I know I can use voice command - but only if I have something particular in mind. BROWSE means just that, to look at what is available. I don't like this one bit. Anyone have a work around????

Yeah I have some hard drives with music and this feature is the worst for all of the reasons mentioned. The best workaround I have is to have a passenger in the car but there's gotta be a better way, just haven't found it yet.

So if it senses a passenger, it stays active? (thinking cinder block).....
