Lost highway drive assist
With the recent update I can’t use seemingly any divided highway in Nova Scotia with highway assist, it only works if I buy the Autonomy+ subscription which is marketed as additional roads but not required for highways, which is disappointing as I can’t even use it on highways anymore without having to pay

Now slower and buggier
The Rivian app has always been a bit mid. This reached a whole new level of issue since the Rivian “intelligence” rollout. I got a buggy AI assistant I don’t want in exchange for:
- painful 30s-1min wake-ups to unlock the car I am standing next to and just locked
- even more unreliable multi-factor drive
- constant nags to connect data my car should never need
- a slow and poorly animated “AI” to incorrectly search for Spotify songs

I wish it had CarPlay
The Rivian is a great car. My only big gripe is that without CarPlay it’s like going back in time ten years on the media experience.
They’ve built their own versions of Maps, Spotify, etc, and none of them are very good. AND they charge you $15/month to use them.
My only other big gripe with the car is the doors don’t open when you walk up to it. You have to touch your phone to the door.

BEWARE!
I downloaded the latest app update as well as the vehicle 2026.15.0 update within the last 48 hours. By coincidence I also bought a new smart phone. I now am able to access and drive the vehicle ONLY with a physical key card. I cannot add or delete a digital key through either the app or the Apple wallet. It seems Rivian failed to do all the quality control work on the back end to make sure the little things still worked before rolling out major software updates. What a crock.
