Hey @JeremyMKE much appreciated and really couldn't have said it better (might have to borrow this as a testimonial!). Should add a guide on the USB ports -- not just the wired AA/CP connection but also run a USB-A to USB-C cable from one of the other ports and use it as a charging cable.
All good and appreciate the kind words and candid feedback. Agreed on this not being a 100% OEM type product by any means, but felt I was pretty candid in all communications regarding this. It's an early adopter product, but that speaks directly to pretty much every Rivian owner!
With that...
A couple things here:
1)A very small % of the overall customer base has to change a a few settings when they get the device to make it function with their phone. It is all outlined pretty clearly in our forum. If that's the criteria for a "beta product" then any piece of technology anyone has...

Also, please please please post help requests in the EV...
Did ChatGPT work for you? I tried downloading it but it gave me some error. I installed Gemini AI and find it fun to talk to vs. listening to music sometimes. EV Play actually has its own 6 TOPS NPU, and so when the chaos dies down I want to develop and run a local LLM that's trained on all...
@Gurule92 -- amazing video as always, thank you for that. Pretty spot-on assessment and glad you enjoy the native Android experience. That to me is the one of the best parts, albeit the most under-appreciated. I also like your custom background although wondering how many significant others are...
