Rivian adds support for Control Center widgets in iOS 18

Following Tesla last month, Rivian is now rolling out support for Control Center widgets for iPhone users running iOS 18.

As shared by RivianTrackr, the Rivian app for iPhone appears to offer a set of five different controls. Once added to Control Center, these options let you perform common tasks with just a single tap.

  • Lock/Unlock
  • Hood
  • Climate
  • Liftgate
  • Windows

Rivian has adopted popular iPhone features at a strong pace. The company added Live Activity support back in February, while the second-generation R1T and R1S electric vehicles also support Apple’s Car Key platform. The glaring omission, of course, is support for CarPlay, and it doesn’t seem like that will change.

iOS 18 offers a major revamp to Control Center, giving you greater flexibility in customizing the layout and structure of their experience. With the new update, you can now have multiple pages within Control Center, plus support for third-party apps like Rivian.

The latest version of the Rivian app is available on the App Store.
