Turn off screen on stereo while vehicle is on

Hi has anyone figured out how to turn off the stereo screen completely while driving ? Every time I try it turns back on

 

put it dark mode all the time, thats what we did to make so its not as noticeable.

 

I leave mine off all the time and dark mode when I need it hoping it will last longer. I keep my vehicles for 15-20 years.

 

auto mode during the day or light mode is way to dam bright even turned down for us.

old age probably

 

Thank you !

 

I just came across this setting myself last night. So relaxing with the screen turned off. I wish there was a hot button on the carplay home screen to turn it off or a swipe gesture that could work universally across all menus to turn it off. Toyota? Are you listening?

 

One of my biggest complaints with the truck. The lack of physical buttons to toggle through radio functions and inability to turn off the screen with a single press is quite annoying.

 

So many buttons on the steering wheel
