Rivian will launch an Apple Watch app that can remotely access and control its EVs.

After adding support for using the Apple Watch as a digital key for its Gen 2 EVs in December, Rivian is launching an Apple Watch app alongside an update to its mobile app, according to RivianTrackr. The watchOS app can be used to open windows, activate the alarm, or unlock doors, including Gen 1 EVs.
