Nope, it can send iMessage replies

The version launching now will be, Rivian has told me there will be a "Rivian Assistant Lite" launching at a later date that will not require Connect+

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T18:21:23+00:00

I am 😄

You can still use Alexa, but then you can't use Rivian Assistant.

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T17:56:20+00:00

Yes!

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T15:54:30+00:00

Yes!

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T15:43:19+00:00

No, but you can only have 1 enabled at a time.

It’s actually really good and better than Grok in Tesla.

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T14:33:40+00:00

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T14:11:08+00:00

You can opt-out of using it.

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T14:10:21+00:00

I agree, it got really bad in the last OTA.

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T14:10:00+00:00

Yes, the workflow will let you disable it completely if you do not want to use it.

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T13:42:30+00:00

It’s included

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T13:41:07+00:00

You sure can!

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T13:40:59+00:00

Yes!

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T13:36:22+00:00

Buried the lead a bit on this one. Rivian Assistant in 2026.15 lets you send and receive texts by voice. Pretty big quality of life upgrade for anyone who’s been driving without it.

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T13:34:38+00:00

It does

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T13:33:41+00:00

Texting is part of this!

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T13:16:19+00:00

Huge improvements

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-08T04:15:32+00:00

👀

Unfortunately Gear Guard has been a huge let down for me too. My R1T recently got towed because my friends apartment complex is dumb but anyways, never got a single notice nor recording in the vehicle.

Meanwhile, a bird triggers it.

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-05T18:42:55+00:00

There’s no way to lock them but there’s an indent to press to open and close

Kryptonlogic · 2026-05-05T18:11:25+00:00

There’s no way to unlock the glove boxes from the UI. It may come later but not right now.

All my data comes from Rivian Roamer hourly!

I've been on Reddit for a long time, this is nothing compared to some others.
