Is there an easier way to get from Android Auto to Toyota audio?

[Timmybung]

So I'm often using Android Auto for navigation but will want to switch to Toyota audio to see what artists are on my other Sirius favorites. It's an annoying number of clicks to get there. Bottom-left to go split, then click the array of dots to show apps, click Toyota, then click the music notes to go to audio. Is there an easier / quicker way to do this?
I'm going to try and post pictures of the screens in series. Full size screen / '25 Trailhunter. Looking at the pictures I realize I should have taken one more: the last pic (showing Van Halen) you'd need to click that bar with the artist name to get the favorites list to display with the current artists.

I'll try it but I thought that just changed the audio source (like cycles between FM - AM - Sirius - Amazon Music etc.) Not looking to change audio sources, just looking to change what's displayed on the screen. Next time I'm in the 4Runner I'll give it a try.

I misunderstood

to change screen to see non-android-auto
title and artists use the multi-step path you already know

Playing around this morning I did learn that if you hold the Mode button it mutes the audio lol

Same here, why can't they integrate the audio into Android Auto. Irritating

Havent tried this, but can you add the Toyota app to be one of the default apps? Like replacing Pandora or Spotify?

I wondered that but didn't see a way to do it in Android Auto

Software limitations. Same for Apple's CarPlay as well.

Have you not tried the toyota voice commands? That should work no?

2 taps, 1 to bring up the apps, 1 to tap the toyota app (which is the first icon in his list)

No. To Toyota audio. It is 4 taps.
