    Alexa and texts

    I think I have this set up, but you can only send texts to people who have an Alexa device or the Alexa app installed on a smartphone.

    Better Use of Air Cockpit Real Estate

    I tried to figure out how to get rid of the "work" menu item, I'm retired so isn't necessary to navigate to "work" - thankfully.

    Completely agree. SiriusXM is not known for music quality, but more than makes up for that with a wide variety of channels and genres to choose from, especially appreciated in remote locations.

    SiriusXM Megathread

    Completely agree, especially in the western half of the USA, where cell is non-existent on many state highways begging for a road trip off the beaten path, that might include 2 lane, curvy roads where driving fun is to be had. Having said all of that, I'm downloading lots of tracks to my iPhone...

    Being a noob, I wasn't aware that Lucid GPS navigation requires a cell signal to function? I downloaded all the offline maps for the western USA, so a bit confused as to actual GPS navigation capability?

    There's trade-offs in everything for sure. I just finished a 5,000 mile RV road trip across the western USA, and it was nice to have access to Sirius XM programming everywhere we were, many times in remote locations. (especially news/sports broadcasts.) I totally get the quality versus...

    This is lame IMO. Relying on cellular signal availability for a satellite based service is just papering over what should have been hardware based in the first place. Even my antique 2013 Toyota Prius had SiriusXM radio capability. My Lucid workaround is to bluetooth from my SiriusXM iPhone app...

    Thank you. Mine has been a 100% fail to charge via the Lucid app, works fine if I pay for a charge via the EA app. I've tried all the iterations, and have never seen the mysterious Electrify America button. Lucid is working on it, hopefully gets fixed soon.

    Just confirming, you saw the "Electrify America" tab/button where, exactly?

    Did you ever see an authentication error message anywhere?

    This is the Tucson EA...it's been a consistent fail since I brought the car home - it's about 9 miles from me. The puzzle to me is why the Lucid app will show 6/10 functional, I go there to try, it fails, then the Lucid app shows 0/10 available. There's a glitch that needs attention sooner than...

    Still a significant failure to charge at the one and only EA location in Tucson. Multiple phone/conference calls have produced no solution. The main symptoms are authentication failures, and no EA button appearing in the Lucid app. Periodically, the app shows all stations unavailable, when...

    Tucson

    I took delivery of my GT a couple of weeks ago, love this car! Have you tried the Electrify America charging location at the Outlet Mall location off of Twin Peaks Blvd? Mine basically won't charge there, getting "authentication" errors.

    That's good I guess...the interesting part of today's experiment was the suggestion that I work it out with EA, so I called them, and the nice woman told me I needed and active, funded account. So I added a few bucks to the EA till, still a no-go. EA was also insistent that I provide an...

    Tried all of that, it seems like the onboard "certificate" is not communicating properly with EA. In the early stages of today's experiment, I did see a couple of odd messages on the Pilot Panel - failure to authenticate, then another one telling me to "authenticate" via the app, but there was...

    Took delivery last week, decided to try EA to make sure it works, pretty much a fail. The charger communicates with the vehicle, and then asks for payment (meanwhile the vehicle is "preparing to charge.") I never saw a white Electrify America" button in the app.

    That's true, and I'm finding blind spots due, allegedly, to interference from 5G too, but only in urban environments. Will have to check out the Tidal service.

    That's good to know, will check it out..

    That's a good idea, except for those times when we're out of cell coverage, like on I-8 between Tucson and the San Diego where the coverage is spotty. We just finished a long summer trip in our RV all over the west, and was glad to have consistent satellite everywhere we went - call me spoiled I...
