Rivian has a built-in navigation system. However, it is often more convenient to explore locations and routes on Google Map. Rivian allows any driver on a Rivian car to directly share Google Map to the Rivian app to open the route using the built-in navigation system.

Memorizing AC vent positions.

Disable unlocking at home. By default, Rivian locks and unlock automatically while you walk away/towards it. This can be annoying at home. Fortunately, Rivian supports customizing the proximity locking behavior at home. It can be configurated via "Settings -> Vehicle -> Access -> Proximity locking -> Locking behavior at home". Then how do you unlock Rivian at home? You can of course unlock it from the Rivian app. However, gen 2 Rivian has a very neat feature which allows you to touch the nub on the handle to unclok it at home.
