  1. Phone key pet peeve.

    Same with me. I just walk near my garage and it unlocks and unlocks. Mind you, the app isn’t even running in the packground. But in the target parking lot, good ol Rivera has me looking like an idiot. When I first got my Riv, I thought it was a bit alarmist. In ā€˜safe’ areas it could unlock from...
  2. 2025 Rivian Halloween Mode Update teaser

    I like the Halloween modes. They are fun. They are unique to Rivian and a conversation starter. I use it while sitting in my driveway handing out candy to kids (and airplane bottles to the parents 😁) functionally it’s pointless. But why does everything have to be about function. It’s cool.
  3. Will you convert your R1 reservation into an order or are you reconsidering it?

    Cast me down as a maybe. I originally got my gen2 R1S to maybe speed up the process of getting an R2. Plus, being my first EV, I get to understand the dna of Rivian. I can’t imagine an R2 will be a world different. but, having the R1S made me really love the bigger vehicle. I’m always hauling...
  4. iPhone 17 pro Proximity unlock with gen2 r1s

    lol. Oh I do. My wallet only has my license, a cc and the card key in it. When I’m in my town tho, I usually leave my wallet at home.
  5. Would you still buy your Rivian today?

    Yes. In a heartbeat. I’d only choose a bolder color one. That blue is real nice as is the red.
  6. iPhone 17 pro Proximity unlock with gen2 r1s

    Gen2 and 17pro owner here. And I too have noticed an issue as well. Seems to take a bit longer to recognize that I’m standing right next to the car. But I’m unsure if it’s the new phone, new iOS or new Rivian software. For me they all changed within a couple of days of each other. I did do a...
  7. Apple iOS 26 - Apple Maps send to Rivian Issue

    Works for me. Funny thing is this thread is the first I ever heard of this feature. Spend 10 min just trying to find the way to even send a location. Is it only for new search locations tho? I don’t see a share option for saved locations.
  8. šŸ”„ EVPLAY : Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are Finally Here | EVPLAY Install, Setup, Initial Impressions ⚔

    It’s called WiFi analyzer like Alex pointed out. I can list the developer when I get home later. It’s on an android phone I use for penetration testing. But it’s got a wealth of info. Pretty handy.
  9. šŸ”„ EVPLAY : Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are Finally Here | EVPLAY Install, Setup, Initial Impressions ⚔

    This post seems to have become the defacto spot to share experiences with EVPlay and installing. So here is my story. I received mine yesterday and being a techy guy I decided to ā€œjust do it real quickā€. Outside of a few scratched knuckles, taking off the interior panels wasn’t too bad...
  10. What's the use case for just the rear cargo rail system?

    I purchased a second set and use them to tie down things. Mostly groceries under a net. But this topic raises another question. On those holders there is a hole that looks like it would accept a post or something. Anyone know a specific accessory that it’s meant for?
  11. What is your "minor wish?"

    Here are a few of mine: there’s a built in mic for phone and smart commands and there are exterior speakers in all four corners - connect the 2 and have a PA system. with the synthetic ā€œelectronicā€ sounds out of the exterior speakers, make it customizable. For example: old school 350 motor...
  12. R2 Sneak Peek

    Looks like they added some buttons on the driver side handle for lock/unlock doors. Beats reaching over to the main display.
  13. Rivian added 12v batt to my service appointment

    Same thing for me. Had a mobile appt for rotation and multipoint inspection. Tech sad that he was also swapping my 12v. They keep track of batch numbers, for literally every thing, my 12v apparently was in a batch that had potential issues and did a preventative maintenance to replace it. I...
  14. I know which one I picked :-P [LOCKED DUE TO POLITICS]

    Sometimes the waitstaff take issues when customers park that close to a dumpster.
  15. Hands free driving on I5 for 6 hours

    I use the hands free function to reduce fatigue on long trips. My only personal sort of gripe is I grew up in a generation where I really only look forward about 60-70% of the time. The rest of the time I’m looking at all my mirrors and side windows for other cars, people, road conditions...
  16. Amazon testing robots to be deployed with Rivian delivery vans

    Or maybe they’ll stay behind post delivery as centurions to protect against porch pirates. that an aaarrrggggument I can see šŸ“ā€ā˜ ļø
  17. Amazon testing robots to be deployed with Rivian delivery vans

    Maybe it’s to deploy in larger areas. Or even more rural areas. There is an Amazon deliver truck that sits all day or at least for sever hours a day in this very remote area. Residents/farmers/locals make their way to him to collect packages. Keep in mind, a lot of these small areas don’t even...
  18. No cloud connection and 502 on API calls

    502’s are bad gateway errors. Maybe someone fat fingered a dns entry up there. Or had a server crap out. I’d have Rivian reboot their modem first tho. Lol
  19. Sirius and other apps having issues connecting to the internet?

    I have had similar experience. Really since the last update. It seems when there is a loss or a slow connection the system takes quite a bit more to recover. I drive the same route every day pretty much and at the same 2 ā€œlowā€ areas is when I encounter the issue. I’ll chalk it up to being a new...
