Alexa I can’t get your exact location

[Billofaustin2]

I suspect this is a setting however when I asked Alexa for navigation her responses I can’t get your exact location. Is there a setting somewhere that shows my location in the onboard Alexis app?

Same thing here. She had ONE JOB... Ended up just turning her off and typing a search in the Nav which seems to give me a different voice for guidance. Never liked Alexa, Cortana, Siri, Google Ass garbage listening anyway.

Rivian really dropped the ball with voice control.

You'll need to log in to your Amazon/Alexa account to use most voice commands. For whatever lame reason, Alexa in the car can't get its location unless you log in to your account. I guess Amazon wants to know everywhere you go and everything you do in the car.

It keeps logging me out of my Alexa account so I have to log back in so I gave up. There are only a few commands you can use without logging in (like turning on the steering wheel heat).

Tesla does a far, far better job with their voice commands—and no need to sign in to a 3rd-party application that's mining all your information.

infigured it out. Go to settings/Amazon alexa/ and select location while using. I did not have this turned on.

Not lame at all. It's all about privacy. You have to OPT-IN to location tracking. That's the way it should be.
