R1 Update. Remember those?

[KBabione]

I'm happy that Rivian does lots of testing before releasing major updates.

In three years of R1S ownership, I recall only one update that had an issue that affected a lot of people - and they stopped the rollout immediately while it was fixed. There's a reason they roll out updates in waves.

Yes - there are individuals who are negatively impacted each update and anyone with a problem isn't shy about posting their issues here (usually in a positive way like "has anyone else seen..."), but for the most part, each update either fixes issues (most of which I don't seem to have) or provides new functionality (like being able to switch from All Purpose to Conserve without disengaging Driver Assist). I'll continue to look forward to the updates as long as they keep coming.

I've had more issues with my computer following a Windows update than I've ever had with our Rivian after an update to it.

Could be coincidence or not - but I was having really poor results with UWB and PAAK under 2026.15.

I just got 2026.15.30 this week (76 days later!) and noticing near instant response from PAAK the last few days. Even at home when sleeping, it responds much quicker. It's not in the release notes but nothing else changed.

edit - well, I'm a liar. I also did the iOS 26.6 upgrade last week so... who knows, but I'll take my wins.
