alexa

I'm in a loaner R1S that's running 2026.03. It hasn't gotten any updates while I've had it, and yet this afternoon the Rivian Assistant showed up! It replaces Alexa (although it looks like you can disable RA and go back to Alexa if you'd want to do that for some reason) and is pretty slick! \...

[Edit: description of contact display when connected] I've been trying to get used to using Alexa, but it's really trying my patience. I have three main problems and plenty of little ones, but I'll stick to the major ones in this post, and hopefully someone will have a solution. Startup - When...

Question for members who know more about this stuff than I do: with Alexa set to get a "brain transplant" soon, will the new AI capabilities be usable in our Rivians? In the vehicle, your personal Alexa account is linked to it. So if you upgrade your account to the "AI-level Alexa" (rumored...

Before I explain, I have done a soft and hard reset and I have also contacted customer support with no immediate fix. I was sitting in traffic doing nothing but listening to music when all of a sudden the left button on the steering wheel changed from skipping to the next song to fast...

As soon as the "connect plus" trial ended Alexa no longer works. Consistently get a message that says the Internet is not available. What is that about? I've had multiple cars from a Ford to Tesla to Porsche and have not encountered this. Very frustrating.

I just got an R1S Gen 2 two weeks ago. I've had this issue from the beginning, and it is so frustrating. I'm sharing my experience trying to diagnose it. I never have any problems playing Spotify from the touchscreen control. Often, however, when I tell Alexa to play a song on Spotify, the...

Over the past couple of months I noticed that the integrated apps in my R1T don't respond (Alexa, Map route planning) or don't populate content (Spotify, TuneIn) unless the vehicle is placed in drive. If I'm sitting in park in my garage or out in the wild, Alexa just doesn't respond to voice...

Took ownership of my R1T. So happy with it so far! Got everything set up except Alexa. It will make phone calls, but when I try to do a voice text it says it needs a paired data connection. Anyone have any idea how to do this or what this means? Even amazon doesnt know.

See UPDATES below Took delivery of R1T launch edition yesterday. All good. Heck, thrilling! This is a dream come true, really, an amazing truck and I ?? for everyone to experience this soon yourselves. [Caveat - below is supplied in effort to share and be helpful, not critical. This is a brand...

Hi folks - My daughter, who was born before Jeff Bezos tried to ruin her life, is named Alexa. She was once reprimanded at school for threatening to kick a kid in the nuts for him looking at her and saying “Alexa, play a song”. This is funny once, maybe twice. It is not funny after that...

It's definitely very disappointing CarPlay / Android Auto aren't available but I can (somewhat, maybe?) rationalize that. However, if the only mapping option is Mapbox or TomTom... It may be a deal breaker for me. (and a looottttt of other people) Hear me out: Clearly the Rivian team is design...

For those with complaints and gripes, put them here instead of clogging up the threads with off-topic chatter. At the end of every week, I will forward your complaints to Rivian for further escalation. Cheers. Or go directly to Rivian at www.rivian.com/complaints/bezos_got_his_first.aspx

As reported by TechCrunch Rivian announces ahead of CES that it will integrate with Alexa. Rivian will integrate Amazon’s voice assistant Alexa into the R1T pickup and R1S SUV, the company’s first electric vehicles that are set to debut at the end of the year. Rivian said Monday it also plans...
