Kammok x Rivian Crosswing Awning Launched on Kammok

I've been using my phone's hotspot for months, and my Rivian connects to it automatically to run TuneIn and Spotify through the built-in apps on the main display. To be clear, this wasn’t Bluetooth streaming but actual phone data, and the apps worked perfectly without any issues. In Monday for the first time, I saw a Connect+ message pop up, even though the truck was linked to my phone’s data. I can still stream from my phone using Bluetooth, but the sound quality and user experience weren’t as good. This issue started between over-the-air software updates, though it might be tied to a specific date in the system. I tried a soft reset, but nothing changed. Has anyone heard if Rivian changed their policy on this? I remember Connect+ used to mention it provided "data" for streaming apps, suggesting you could use your own data instead. Now, it seems like you need Connect+ just to access the apps at all. I was surprised they allowed phone hotspots to work before, so this might be a deliberate change. I’m okay with paying for Connect+ if this isn’t just a temporary glitch. Any insights would be appreciated.

I've been looking at dome really cool awning options and I came across the Kammok x Rivian collaboration awning that was announced laat month. To my surprise, it was launched early.

Although, Rivian has yet to update the Gear Shop, however, Kammok has updated theirs. The Rivian version is $1300 ($200 more than the standard) and comes with Rivian specific mounts. Aside from the mounting hardware the awning has no marketed differences from the standard option.

It looks really good and a perfect fit for my R1T. What do you guys think? Should I go for it?
