Not sure how much of this is new with app version 2.20.0, but I didn’t know that you can add some Rivian controls to the control center.

Apologies in advance if this is well known already (very possible!).

Just swipe down from top right to bring up the control center, then long press an empty spot to being up option to add a control icon (at the bottom). Type in “Rivian” in the search bar, and you will find things like hood, charge port, lock/unlock, lift tailgate, windows, and climate.

It's a really cool feature as it makes it easier to do some simple stuffs rather than going all the way to the app.

Yep I'm new to Rivian too and am exploring all the different ways to connect. I use my Apple Watch with Shortcuts per this video and put a complication right on the watch face to access (don't need Apple Watch Ultra for this). Also added an icon to my home page to unlock and added a widget so it's accessible from the Lock Screen. I keep "Lock Only" on at home (I don't like the door handles extending all the time) so trying to find simple workarounds.

Thank you for sharing this feedback. I really love how easy it is to take control of your Rivian using your phone or your watch. I can't wait for the release of the R2 now
