My R1T was just flagged and the download started. Have to say, it's the most bizarre download speed, I've ever seen. Just pulsing every second.

looks like it might be getting throttled by their cloud storage

Just FYI it took ~2 hours after I installed the update before I got the Rivian Digital Key is Ready email, so... patience!

Quick test with .46. I am hearing some improvement with Gen2 audio. Curious if others are hearing the same.

This is an interesting one. Looking forward to installing it once we are back behind the wheel. Definitely don't want this update applied while it is sitting at an airport.

Am I the last one? I have Connect+, but I haven't gotten the update yet? Am I on Santa's bad list this year?

Oof. I can't be the only one that thinks the "new" center-screen gauge view style is....not good. Everything on the gauges just looks crowded and smooshed since they didn't redesign anything and just made the boxes shorter. It looks awful and just a bunch of empty space at the top where, presumably, more buttons/text will go at some point. I really preferred the trailer tab to be the popover and I could still see my gauges at the same time. I really hope this improves and/or they make the text/buttons smaller...this is really not great.

That top corner is all dead space now intentionally. Majority of drivers can't see it without shifting around in their seat.

I love the center map display.

I've been a huge critic of Phone as Key but this new version looks to be massively better. I can use it now and not be frustrated!

Attached video of a demo drive on a very dirty, snowy, icy rural road where the R1T let me engage hands free. Yes, Rivian properly says don't do it in these conditions but it allows it to be engaged pretty much everywhere. Please use proper judgement.

Going to be below zero tonight. Will do a cold soak and attempt a level 2 charge in the morning.

I'm talking about the center screen, not the driver screen.
