2025.06.01 Update: Bummer Gen 1 Rivian Vehicles are Missing out on Vehicle Ahead Moving Chime

Last night, when I reached my Rivian truck after work, my iPhone displayed a message. I captured a screenshot to show what happens if you avoid signing back into the app. The Phone as a Key (PAAK) feature still works without logging in again. If you're in an area with poor cell service, don’t try to sign in. Instead, keep using the app and PAAK until you’re somewhere with a good signal and can access your password. The screen’s text explains this, but some users still get confused. This is a quick tip for PAAK users to avoid trouble.

I’m already resigned that Gen 1 owners are going to miss a lot of the new features, and I understand the limitations of the camera quality and processors, but one feature I was hoping to test on 2025.06.01 was the vehicle ahead moving chime.

I’m really bummed they couldn’t find a way to make that feature work on Gen 1 cameras and sensors. Some old low tech vehicles have that for years, and I find it really useful. Probably if a lot of Gen 1 owners complain about missing out on the feature, something could be done about it.
