Reprogramming Button for Camera

[Luckydad3]

I'd love to re-program one of the physical buttons on my '21 Yukon to open up the camera view screen, so I don't have to navigate the infotainment screen to home and then tap on the camera app.

Has anyone done something like this, or know if it is possible?

The reason I want this is that the sensitivity seems too low to automatically bring up the camera screen when I park, more often than not. Is there a way to increase sensitivity so that the camera screen is triggered more easily?

I was thinking the Gap Adjust button on my steering wheel would be a good candidate...I don't use the "" check mark button or knob on the infotainment control area either. Hmm.

if there is no described option to do it in the owners manual then I doubt it is possible and getting into the system with any kind of 3rd party tool is probably at least a couple years down the road. The encryption has to be broke first.

+1 I'd love to have this option. There's a lot of reasons to want to quickly pull up the camera - e.g. even just when i've pulled into a parking spot its easy to check that I'm centered from the cameras.

Unfortunately I don't think it's possible. However, I did figure out you can re-arrange the icons on the infotainment screen, so I put the camera app on the first page. Now at least it's a simple and repeatable process to pull it up - hit the physical home button (always brings you home no matter what screen you're on) and the camera is button is in the upper right corner.

I know intercepting the gap adjust button is possible, but making it display with cameras I am not sure.

The rumor is that this will be a feature for the ‘22s.

Great to know, thanks! I wonder if that will include a software update that will allow for the purchase of an OEM button to pop into one of the blank spaces on that left-side area...
