Anger management - take deep breaths, it’s not that serious. :lipssealed:

I disagree but you believe you.

I owned an earlier BMW x7 with Apple CarPlay and I’m pretty sure it consumed the entire screen. You had to exit CP to get to iDrive. This likely changed now for most vehicles. Perhaps this is what Wassym experienced?

And they are fairly new at making autos and developing software. The latter needs more work. Testing seems to be lacking. They shouldn’t release software products to gain input. If they wish to lead in this area they’ll need a much more robust operating model.

From UI perspective Rivian has the upper hand. They just need to nail the operation and function.

Isn’t there a setting you can turn off so she doesn’t listen? I thought I saw that somewhere.

Great post, thanks for this!

Maybe you need to sell your vehicle since this angers you so much.

I wouldn’t go as far to say it was crappy. It just wasn’t ready for primetime.

Is this pin update because most want to navigate first? Is this the problem they’re addressing? I believe I saw in the notes that it’s being tested and will rollout soon.

Or the RA rollout, again. 😑 So many fixes!!!

https://riviantrackr.com/news/whats-coming-in-rivians-2026-15-30-hotfix/ Rivian’s got a new update in testing that should hit cars externally before long. It’s not a feature drop, it’s a hotfix, and nearly all of it goes into Rivian Assistant. Gen 1 and Gen 2 R1T and R1S all get Rivian...

Everyone would have a tantrum because it’s not free like other car manufacturers. Although I believe I paid for it when I had it with my BMW.

That video says a whole lot about nothing. Those screenshots of CarPlay running within a Tesla could very well be screenshots from third-party tools that I’ve used three or four years ago. I’d wait for the official release and not listen to these Talking Heads on YouTube.

China deploys its own AI technology, not Grok. They do have very competitive domestic AI systems that often outperform Grok. But, Grok is primarily a US AI deployment.
