I just installed the unit today, it works good so far. I like seeing CarPlay on a big screen.
couple questions not sure if they were answered already in the 14 pages lol
1.- the volume of songs being played through the CarPlay Apple Music is very high when comparing with same Bluetooth Apple...
Ah ok yeah that makes sense. So when I had a Tesla I had “CarPlay” through the browser and it would do the same thing and it drove me nuts because of the delay and switching back and forth between Bluetooth connections. Thanks for the input on that!
Yeah that makes sense about testing with the phone streaming over Bluetooth.
So for example in the case where I have music playing through the native Rivian app and I switch over to evplay for all other CarPlay related things like txt messaging and Waze etc, would the sound from alerts or Siri...
From others here that have it, what has the experience been playing music from say Apple Music or Tidal been? is it comparable to the native app sound? I don't believe Atmos plays through BT correct?
I really want to give this a go but I don't want to spend $400 to be disappointed in the sound
Thank you for the reply. How about the audio quality over Bluetooth? What are the specs of your device when it comes to that? Also just spitballing here, couldn't you connect your device to USB somehow for the audio portion so that at least that part is not compressed like bluetooth is? not sure...
Sorry if it's been answered already, for audio purposes, does this play audio from say Apple Music or Spotify over bluetooth to the car? what about Siri responses? is there some direct audio integration?
My concern is the delay over bluetooth for audio and also the quality of the sound vs...
I do understand that, I was referring to the post saying they don't have the man power for Gen1 when they obviously have people working on updates for Gen1 that are similar to Gen 2
I would agree with that point completely If it didn’t have that capability, but Gen 1s already do that when...
That doesn't make sense. They are releasing basically the same updates on both but Gen 1 doesn't get the turn signals that are basically already there but only when you use hwy assist...
I don't get why the smart turn signals only seem to be for the Gen 2, Gen 1s should absolutely be able to do that, they do it when you're on "autopilot" and you switch lanes...
Haha I won’t tell teehee ?.
Honestly, not enough to break it. It did have the front end taken apart in August to replace the front dampers due to clunking noises in the suspension, could be coincidence, could be a cause.
So yeah. 3900 miles on the clock and the FDU is getting replaced. I started to notice a noise from the front end when accelerating from a stop between 0-25mph. The sound is similar to when as a kid u put a card on the bike frame and the wheel spoke to make it go brrrr just like that. The faster...
When I was picking up my car from NJ, there was a lady there that was getting her car serviced. The Rivian person there said take whatever u want from the table, she took a shirt, he said take more. Whatever u want and she was like uh u sure? He was like yeah. She took a couple of each items...
This, I am currently using it from my previous Tesla and works perfectly fine. Obviously you need an adapter to go from NACS to J1772 which you can also find easily on Amazon.
I believe you can also get a tax break on a wall charger depending on the state.
I am on the trial for Apple Music and not all songs are Dolby Atmos, that being said, where I do notice a difference switching between Apple Music and Spotify playing the same song is between The Weeknd - Save Your Tears. Spotify is very bass heavy and Apple Music is not as heavy and you have...
I’ve noticed that randomly, the auto high beams get disabled and I notice it while driving that they are not on. I go to settings and sure enough they are toggled off. This has happened twice.
Also, drive cam doesn’t work and has an error message that I need to reboot the system however, while...
No I think you’re missing the point, there are more important things to show there than the angle of the truck. At least that’s how I see it. Again, nobody is going to agree on how this looks. It won’t please everyone and I guess that’s the point of this thread
