Abstract
A vehicle computing system has at least one controller in communication with one or more transceivers, where the one or more transceivers are capable of communicating with a wireless device. The at least one controller is configured to recognize a vehicle occupant based on a wireless device connection received at the transceiver. The at least one controller is further configured to receive one or more infotainment rules based on the recognized vehicle occupant. The one or more infotainment rules are associated with at least one of time of day, calendar date, vehicle location, and exterior temperature. The at least one controller is further configured to control an infotainment system by adjusting control settings based on the one or more infotainment rules.
