Glare on Screen

Just purchased a 2018 Acura MDX. I'm struggling with the sun constantly flushing out the screen. I am having a hard time seeing it. I am looking everywhere to see if there is some sort of "shade" for the second screen that is touch. Can anyone help with this? The brightness doesn't seem to get bright enough to see it all that well during the day.

I also looked for some type of hood for the touch screen and came up empty for my MDX last year.

I did a gloss screen protector from Amazon, $10, for my MDX and RLX that helps a bit with glare. It has to be a gloss finish, not matte. I can't remember what brand I used for my 19 MDX when I applied the screen protector back in Mar/19. This is what I used for my 18 RLX:

Are your windows tinted? I'd think that would help

Most of my glare issues comes when the sun roof slider door is open or when direct sunlight is overhead and coming straight down from the front front windshield. I do have tint on the front windows.

Common issues on ALL cars with modern displays. Close rhe sun roof shade. On the center conteols there is a small button botton right. Press once and the lights control display activates make sure it set to daylight.

I have a screen protector on mine and have 35% tint up front. I still get glare but its not a big issue for me. My main focus is on the navi screen with android auto on. The only real way to fix this issue is darker tint on the front windows (5-20%) and/or maybe a light tint on the windshield but i wouldnt recommend that.
