>> >> - ‘Directions’ - ‘Directions Icon’
Phone app: ‘Phone’ - ‘Menu’ - ‘Menu Icon’
>> ‘Dial a number’ - ‘Background’
Google Calendar: ‘Home’ - ‘Calendar’ & ‘Navigation’ - ‘Event’
=> then go to the last tab called ‘Touch’ to replace the app.
Remember to press the save icon and export your preset!
Use this KLWP in conjunction with a data connection, the “OK Google” voice command, Tasker and a bluetooth enabled car stereo for a very powerful setup!
Remember, everything can be Kustomized!
