Abstract
A computer readable storage medium stores instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to establish communication with at least one of a plurality of handheld computing devices connected to a vehicle computing system. The processor may receive input identifying a connected device as a driver handheld device. Once connected to the vehicle-based computing system, the processor may allow the driver handheld device to download an infotainment system configuration from the driver handheld device. The downloaded infotainment system configuration has been preconfigured on the driver handheld device, prior to connection to the vehicle computing system. The vehicle-based computing system may configure infotainment system settings in accordance with the downloaded configuration.
