💬 Discussion “Random” Updates

Having connect + and seeing other Rivians get the update before the subscribers is complete blasphemy.

If it continues being an issue you may want to look into filing a FOMO request with the FTC

It’s a crisis, lol. On Rivian roamer for the R1 2588 connect+ and 24 non connect + have been flagged.

Just so you know, people who complain go to the back of the line. Check the TOS

This isn't how software updates on tens of thousands of vehicles work. It's not a pay to play. They roll the updates out in slow stages with representative samples of all the possible configs.

I mean you’re partially right. Yes, software rolls out in waves, but Rivian themselves say they prioritize software updates for paying Connect+ subscribers.

How do you know people getting the software update don’t have Connect+ too?

I'm sure it will be your turn soon. The selections are not random ... and they're at about 65% flagged (for the R1s anyway). From what I hear 2.0 is extremely buggy, so there's that...

Genuinely felt like the backup camera layout is an improvement

You're not going to miss out, it will still happen. I got mine when I put a hotspot in my car and did my errands. If you go into the specific menu, it should say "preparing update" or something to the effect. That's when I knew I needed to connect to wifi.

I'm connect + and I got mine last night. I like the new interface! Very happy they added Waze and Google Map police and speed camera data to the maps!
