Hi everyone. I am new to the group chat so if this has been covered before, please accept my apologies.

We purchased the Macan 4s 6 months ago and love it. However, the digital clock is tiny and hard to see on the dash and middle screen.
Is there a way of getting a larger clock to show up please on the screens?
Thanks

Not that I know of. There are three possibilities to fix that:
  1. Poke around in the App Center for something with a larger clock display (maybe a weather app)
  2. Run a clock app/widget through CarPlay or Android Auto (like https://clockologyapp.com/widgets-coming-to-carplay-on-ios26-with-clockology/)
  3. Open a clock website in the browser (like https://www.clockfaceonline.co.uk/clocks/digital/).
The browser display might freeze or black out while driving and only pop up while stopped/parked. You'd have to play with it and see if it helped at all.

I don't believe it is possible to change that info display section

As suggested, the new Apple CarPlay widgets have a clock widget available, so you can display that pretty easily. Or wait for cooler clocks from third-parties.

Here's an example I found on the internets with a left and right column of widgets.

the time is displayed in like 4 different places ine car...
but the biggest dispay without doing the Carplay stuff like suggested above, is via the drivers gauge cluster.

If you only goal isn't to have it in the center display, you can customize the drivers display and have it be the only read out in a "tube" if you like...

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I dont mind the centre display, happy to customise the drivers display.

I have looked for the setting but can not find it. Can you give me any more advice please on which settings?
Also we have the head up display, but I can not seem to add it to that, do you know a way please

sorry, i was just messing around with it... and I found that it's in fact only the DATE you can put in a tube by itself...not the time.

Silly me, I just took one of my analog watches (I love more than just Porsches) closed the synthetic band, and kind of lodged it in the phone charging bay, on the right side so I can still put my phone in to charge.
