You can advance the song with the buttons on the steering wheel. Voice helps prevent having to go into the main screen which is distracting - the steering wheel buttons are not distracting.
As the passenger, voice commands are easier than reaching over to the steering wheel. 😁

So you have to have Connect +? Booo. I'm sure it'll be laggy as hell on Gen 1 anyway.
50 cents a day in your piggy bank?

Got it.
I thought you meant there was a way to force a software update to the Rivian.
No. You cannot force an a update to your truck unless it has already downloaded and is scheduled to install. Mine was scheduled for 4 AM tomorrow morning and I told it to update now.

Rivian Assistant seems to work great with Spotify. I told it to play an artist and it completed successfully. I also told it to navigate home and that worked as well.

This is an awesome update.

Can we turn it off if we don't want it?

I have zero desire for any of these features.

You do not need to turn it off just don’t turn it on.

This finally got me to subscribe to Connect+. Being my R1T is more a daily, around town ride, the other features of Connect+ just did not seem worth it since I would not use them much. But I can see using Rivian Assistant frequently if it pans out as described. It Tipped the balance for me.

I turned off my auto update after the last one. Hopefully no download for at least a week.

Damn, no RCS support for messaging?
Blame Google for that. They lock down RCS to only the Google messaging app. No 3rd party is allowed access.
