Software updates that should be here by now.

I'd like my windows to automatically close when the wipers sense rain. Stupid hot summer days necessitate vented windows but afternoon monsoons can fill an interior in minutes.

If it worked that way, I would never be able to get my coffee at the Starbucks drive-through here in the PNW

If you are AWAITING an update to download that seems to have never come when everyone has been posting about the whatever, you may have something going on with the current tech in your vehicle. My R1T stopped taking updates until I had the Driver-side mirror recall service performed in early October. Been updating fine ever since.

There is this video on YouTube of some software updates that Rivian should have had by now. Many of them are pretty reasonable, some will be hard to do, some may not be possible at all. But I like the screen layout suggestions, like trip computer, weather, altitude, and media. These should be easy. The PAAK solution is acceptable but doesn’t fix the issue. The others are ok but maybe not urgent.
Maybe Rivian is just spreading out the updates so there is always more coming…or maybe Gen 1 owners will slowly be left out.

This is basically the list.

-Disable PAAK from app

-Control power outlets from app

-Trip computer, clock, off-road pages shown on driver display

-Lane keep cancel only

-Resume ACC set speed

-Altitude & weather shown on Maps

-Pitch/Roll meter shown in camp mode

-Better phone integration

-Primary/secondary phone bluetooth media control

-Creep, Crawl, and Coast

-Cornering lights

-Power off button

-Auto off parking lights

-Proximity cargo open

-Delayed lock when passenger is sensed.

Current street shown on maps. It used to display that on the old Rivian Nav system. Now it's gone.

Maybe it would only happen when you're not in the vehicle.

One that isn't on your list is:

A messaging app (andI am not talking about yelling "Hey Alexa" or "Hey Siri". I am talking one that is accessible with a button push and a message count in the display.


I do agree with you on the CLOCK being displayed on the dash and not in the teeny tiny upper corner of the infotainment system......that was a dumb design choice.

Possibly my only use case for Alexa is to ask "Alexa, what time is it?"

Things you don’t know you need/want till someone tells it to you. Necessary for tropical weather.

So no Update for November? Is that the first month we didn’t get one?

No. Holidays have impacted the release cadence every year.

I still think the software on my gen2 R1S is miles behind my 2020 Model Y for stability. It’s not even close. And lately the Rivian software has been getting worse for me, not better. I really wish the basics would just work and stay working.

this morning’s latest fun is I started preheat on the car and climate control starts running. I tap heated seats or steering wheel in the app. The buttons show enabled. Then a few seconds later, they turn off.

The Spotify app is still buggy. I frequently experience a situation where I have a Podcast or Music playing and park the vehicle. When I come back, the audio does not restart and the play buttons are unresponsive. I have to return to the Spotify home screen and navigate to the item to restart playing. This happens about once or twice a week. Reset has not fixed it.

I think it is about time for them to give the Gen 1 vehicles all of the stuff they were advertising would be included back in 2020. 5 years seems long enough.

Perhaps start with this one from 2019.
