I’m under the impression that terminal mode is there to interact with r1 when the user doesn’t want audible feedback.

I asked about the weather while in terminal mode and it responded with audible feedback. I had to quickly shut it up so as to not wake up the other person in the room. I then turned the volume all the way down to prevent any other accidental interruptions.

In doing that, I realized perhaps this might be a worthy update down the road? Seems like it would be logical to assume that if I turn it down all the way, then I’m probably trying to be quiet, and therefore would appreciate having the terminal readily available. Perhaps not, but it’s worth throwing out there.

This might be more intuitive than putting the R1 in langscape mode. (I have turned off terminal mode because it gets triggerd accidently too often)

Maybe it should be a step below mute. Like one spin lower than mute opening the terminal mode. It should still switch to a landscape mode if you want to type ofcourse but sometimes I wish I could toggle between a mode where i could just scroll through all the previous answers. Idk what would work…
