How do you guys make your gloves touchscreen-capable? I tried Glovetact, but it's shit (especially for the price).

why are you wearing gloves

Protection.

from what

Falling, debris, wind. What do you think?
Oh, right, I meant motorcycle gloves.

a lot of motorcycle gloves come with built-in touchscreen fingertips

>motorcycle
>touchscreens
what

I'd assume to use a mounted phone for GPS/Bluetooth to your helmet.

phones and GPS units are pretty commonly mounted on handlebars nowadays.

I really don't feel like buying two whole new pairs of gloves only for this feature.

Fox Racing gloves come with a "Media Finger" check them out

Fingerless gloves.
My phone has a glove-compatible touchscreen, though. Works right through two layers of work gloves, one of which is rubber-coated.

By taking one off.

Gloveless ones make my fingertips freeze off from september-december, also don't want to sacrifice protection.

>stop on road (can't on my country's highway)
>take glove off
>touch phone 3-4 times
>put gloves back on
>start going again
Naw.

Why not just use a voice assistant through a bluetooth headset?
I know Siri is hot shit, but Google Now is actually really good. You can even use it with Android Auto right on your phone

Voice recognitions shit themselves when they have to deal with my english accent.

You sure you don't have tourettes or something

No, I'm just eastern european.
Although I swear a lot while on the road.
IMHO if you're not, you're not paying proper attantion to the road.

Bike specific GPS and bluetooth devices are made to be used with big gloves one.

>Although I swear a lot while on the road.
>IMHO if you're not, you're not paying proper attantion to the road.

If you swear a lot, you don't pay enough attention to the road. Most shit you can seeing from miles, just looking at how they drive, where they look etc.

I only have a near-death experience 1-2 a day.

I do this. MANY times, google just sends me in circles, tells me to turn like 2 seconds before an exit in traffic. Google maps a shit. It's better to see it when you can. That's why I like smart watches like the Gear S2. Maps and it's own sim.

It doesn't have to be close calls, it's just people being idiots that piss me off at fucking warp 7. Most of the times it's some variation of "What the FUCK are you doing, you muppet?!"

Use Waze instead, it's lightyears better.

Waze is just google since 2013 brotato. Waze is also a MAJOR resource hog. Drains batteries like a tub.

I've been commuting for a few years. There is little shit that keeps me from staying calm.

I'm so desensitized about it that even Chinese traffic doesn't phase me.

Strange, I had actually 0 problems with that. For the resource hog part I agree, but I got that covered with my 12v USB charger.

You gotta learn to relax man. That's not a healthy way to be. People will ALWAYS drive like shit. Just chill.

Kind of defeats the purpose when it's in my pocket on a motorcycle lol. Which is the original problem.

Trying to man. I'm actually seeing a specialist for anger management. Hope it'll help.

Holy shit, I've only heard rumors about chinese traffic. Is it that bad? I've seen videos of indian traffic, I don't know how people get to point A to point B without dying at least 3 times...

It's your average Polish drunk driver bad.
Only everybody is that Polish drunk driver.
All lanes are lanes, including the shoulder. Overtaking is done whenever.
They're all on their phones too, all the time.
Only good thing is that they don't speed and the speedlimits are already pretty low.
Also, in the city, lights aren't important and wrong-way driving is a way of life for cyclists and scooters.

I never could navigate using voice ques alone, I need to see the map to make sense of it. How did you manage to learn that?

Never been to Poland, but if you guys are anything like the hungarian dumbfucks here, that's still kind of scary.

Works fine for me, miles better than any infotainment system

I'm talking about the Polish lorry drivers we get here in the Netherlands. They tend to end up drunk in the centre divide, or cruise into a passenger car.
Never drove in Hungary, but what I've seen as a kid and a few years back in Budapest, you guys are not the worst.

...When it says "take a right on Nigger St." I take a right on Nigger St....... I also look at the map before I go so I have a sense of where I'm heading.

Good thing we're talking about MOTORCYCLES.

>When it says "take a right on Nigger St."
I've never had a GPS or nav app that does that, they only say like "after 245 meters, turn right"

Does that change the fact that Google Maps works fine?

Well, cars usually don't run on android/ios, so the software itself might be less fuckep-up

Well it doesn't sometimes. You dumb faggot.

>hurrr if I never have a problem, it's clearly perfect

Not to mention areas with no mobile data. Turd slurper.

It does that too. But if it says "turn right in 100 feet" it will generally just be the next street. But most GPS has street names now.

Yes, because it does not.

I have no idea what the girl means with "Blowemanbleyoutuh", even though I'm looking straight at the sign "Bloemenblauwtje".

Offline maps, ass muncher

>Not to mention areas with no mobile data

Most modern cars let you shove a SIM card up the infotainment's ass, so there's that.

>using a touchscreen at the wheel
Kill yourself but please make sure you don't take us down with you in your distracted flaming wreck you glove wearing pussy.

Why I am I even replying...

see

Cut off the tip of your preferred finger for one of your gloves and your foreskin because you shouldn't be allowed to be a full man.

>wearing hand-fedoras
I get a good giggle every time I see one of you autists.

No thanks i'm not jewish

No wonder motorcyclists keep killing themselves.

>motorcycle
>touch screen gps
>not driving wherever the weather takes you

This has nothing to do with religion. You voided your right to foreskin with such a dumb thread that would of been comfy in the bikefag general.

>hand-fedoras
Are shoes feet-fedoras?

Look at that beta-plus male, he thinks playing edgy and non-chalant makes him an alpha

the cold nigga

Licking them usualy works but I have to keep doing it. Considering fingerless gloves for next year maybe

You do realize one of the dirtiest parts of your clothing are your gloves?

I didnt get sick or anything

My samsung phone has a sensitive screen option. Idk what it is in english but it's on the bottom row, 2nd from the left. It works perfectly fine with that mode whwn I want to adjust gps stuff while riding

Get a spool of conductive thread and sew it into your index and thumb tips

well that's an actual advice if there's any in this thread

Wow, I didn't know this existed.
Thanks!

If you're in a car, fix your heater.

If you're on a bike, why are you using a touchscreen? Stop, take the gloves off, use the touchscreen, put them back on, and go.
