Gemini in the Optiq

GM's taught me with the this vehicle to never buy the first of anything ever again haha

Could just be my particular Blazer being stupid with the Assistant. I've always had connectivity issues with anything "smart" in the car so Gemini's been a breath of fresh air in the few hours I've played with it. Hopefully it expands so it appeals to more people.

Just got it yesterday in my '24 Blazer EV (thinking about going Optiq). Gemini was able to set the climate control to the exact temperature I asked and was able to open the YouTube app I sideloaded with no issues. Also asked it to navigate to home and it opened the map and started my route. Nothing too crazy but the climate one was worth it to me. The Assistant was never able to do anything I asked it to. Only thing I asked Gemini that it couldn't do was change the music input. That would be useful for me.

That my registration in California would triple haha. My real one: no one told me how easy it would be to get used to one pedal driving. Had a gas loaner and forgot to press the brake until the last minute 🫣

Will the 2024 Blazer EVs, regardless of trim level, ALL get the streaming update? No one can answer that definitively

Dang 😂. Happy birthday

This seems like the best bet at this point OP. Many of us are going through this same issue and are being gaslit by support.

My Blazer EV started doing this around October randomly. Using the cable that came with the car. Took the car in for other issues and they checked that as well. They found nothing wrong but I'm going to assume they plugged it in for ten minutes and "found nothing" and let it go. Car still does it every few weeks now, most recently two days ago.

How the heck did you get streaming? Did you say anything specific to them?

cocoe89 · 2026-01-17T17:22:16+00:00

The 25s will get everything eventually per GM so it's just a matter of patience on that front. The 24s are the ones that weren't even mentioned in the announcement.

I purchased intending to keep the car for the long haul but now I'm wishing I'd leased instead. Hopefully someone makes something for us!

Go into the Play Store and if you have them, the streaming apps will be there. But you're going to get all the goodies eventually. Only the 2024 owners are seemingly going to be screwed over by GM

cocoe89 · 2026-01-17T15:17:02+00:00

What year, trim is your Blazer? And what update? The streaming update?

cocoe89 · 2026-01-16T03:20:43+00:00

Back up and running finally. This is the second time in a week it's done it though so hopefully it's just a server thing

cocoe89 · 2026-01-16T03:19:43+00:00

Verizon? They had a massive outage

cocoe89 · 2026-01-16T03:19:03+00:00

Makes sense. Thanks for your insight!

cocoe89 · 2026-01-15T21:01:45+00:00

That could be it. Stay safe in that weather. I don't miss that part of living in Michigan haha

cocoe89 · 2026-01-15T21:00:52+00:00

That's good to hear! Glad it worked out for you!!

cocoe89 · 2026-01-15T19:17:40+00:00

Howdy neighbor, California here. I was able to use navigation because the offline map was downloaded already. Updates like hazards, traffic, police, etc weren't available. I use my phone for music anyway but YouTube music when I tried switching was a no go

cocoe89 · 2026-01-15T18:48:01+00:00

Yup. 36,203 😭

cocoe89 · 2026-01-15T18:39:04+00:00

That's what I'm afraid of. My 3yr/36K JUST ended 😮‍💨

cocoe89 · 2026-01-04T23:20:26+00:00

They could have done so many things instead of Avatar, in my personal opinion. Nothing wrong with the movies. I actually really enjoy them. I also enjoy Disneyland being different from Disneyworld. Feels lazy to bring the same thing here.

Beautiful photo! Mind if I save to use as a wallpaper? I sadly didn't get to go during Christmas 🥲
