Using the Shortcuts app on iOS, you can set up a very simple automation to activate your iPhone hotspot for your Rivian.
Once your Rivian is connected to your hotspot once, it remembers it. This automation seems to re-activate the hotspot on your phone, and the Rivian automatically connects.
The action is set personal hotspot to “on “.
This will allow your infotainment apps to work normally without paying for Connect+.

In this video, I show you how to configure Wi-Fi tethering from your phone hotspot to your Rivian vehicle so you can use the native streaming apps and not have to pay for Connect+. This requires your Rivian to be running software 2024.27 or higher.
