  1. USB Connection from Phone to Infotainment System

    Anyone else interested in a hard connection (USB cable) from their phone to the infotainment system? I’ve pinged Rivian about this several times via the unsolicited feedback option in the app (seems like something they should be able to enable with a software update via the USB-C ports in the...
  2. Successful EVPLAY install with GPS antenna, custom button & mic mount (full install video)

    I just finished uploading a full and complete install video of the EVplay box (by @EV Play - Alex) in a Rivian R1T Gen1. I was able to get native GPS working with a $20 USB Antenna bought on Amazon (See video description), I also custom designed a button mount with a mic mount below it that...
  3. Common Myths About CarPlay

    TL;DR: CarPlay is a flexible system designed to support a wide range of in-car experiences, from basic projection to full UI control, all depending on what automakers want to offer. Rivian's position on Carplay is one of the hottest, constantly reoccurring topics on these forums, especially...
  4. Apple CarPlay & Android Auto Solution is Coming Soon... (seriously) -- by EV Play

    Hello everyone, my name is Alex and I've been working over the past 5 months to get Apple CarPlay and Android working on my Rivian center display.

Maybe I'm missing something, but the only specific functions that link to a driver profile or key are seat and mirror adjustment. Is it possible to have a specific set of actions occur from the list below to be only applicable...
  6. Bluetooth Persistence and the lack of on/off switch

    I know the topic has been covered in other threads but I'd like to understand the use case I am missing.... Is there any instance when I am actively utilizing my bluetooth connection when I park my truck, where I wouldn't want the bluetooth to pause or disconnect? Somewhere in the design...
  7. Infotainment upgrade?

    R1T launch edition w’ 22s. 11K miles. 7 months. Has anyone heard or seen anything about an infotainment upgrade at all? The radio, doesn’t work on mine even with the redesign. Not having anything to read texts while you are driving seems primitive. I dont understand why we cant have an...
  8. What mapping system is Rivian using?

    It's definitely very disappointing CarPlay / Android Auto aren't available but I can (somewhat, maybe?) rationalize that. However, if the only mapping option is Mapbox or TomTom... It may be a deal breaker for me. (and a looottttt of other people) Hear me out: Clearly the Rivian team is design...
  9. "Tour Guide" Mode Thoughts

    In an interview it was mentioned about a guided tour mode for places like national parks. The vehicle could autonomously drive while providing information about your surroundings. (in interview here, starting at 9:18) I think this is one of the coolest and most 'out there' features mentioned...
