Enform Updates...
Did you guys get the e-mail from Lexus that they will be updating the Enform App Suite to add Saved Destinations and replace the e-Destination which is currently in the Safety Connect? That is great news and I'm glad Lexus is listening...

e-Destination worked really well when I had it. Because I didn't renew Safety Connection, I don't have it anymore. If you have set a destination either on the phone or on the web, do the following to download it in the car:
1. Go to Destination
2. Points of Interest
3. e-Destinations
4. Download
They will show up ...

I got the email this morning, seems like a waste...where's my siri eyes free update
We hope you are enjoying your Lexus and your Lexus Enform® App Suite service with in-vehicle access to popular mobile applications, such as BingTM, Pandora® and iHeartRadio.
Lexus is proud to introduce a new feature called Saved Destinations, which makes planning your next trip easier. Along with announcing this new feature we also want to inform you of the transition of some features from your Lexus Enform App Suite to the My Lexus and Beyond mobile app, Lexus Roadside Assistance mobile app, and lexusdrivers.com.
Saved Destinations
Saved Destinations is a new Lexus Enform App Suite feature that replaces eDestination within your Lexus Enform App Suite. When searching for points-of-interest (POIs) via Bing within the Lexus Enform App Suite, you can easily store and send your selected points-of-interest (POIs) directly to your vehicle using the Saved Destinations feature. Once your phone is paired, these POIs are accessed via the Saved Destinations folder in your vehicle where you can easily download them to your navigation system and be ready to go.
Please note: Saved Destinations replaces eDestination on mobile devices; however, eDestination will continue to be available through the lexusdrivers.com site.
To use Saved Destinations, you will need to update your existing Lexus Enform App Suite mobile app and your in-vehicle software.
Mobile App Update: Watch for the Lexus Enform App Suite update on your phone in early April or visit the Apple® App StoreSM[1] on your mobile device. Once app version (1.5.31) is available, please update to the new version.
In-Vehicle Software Update: You will automatically receive an on-screen notification in your vehicle when the update is available. Please follow the simple instructions on the screen and your system will be automatically updated to the latest version of Lexus Enform App Suite.
Transition of Select Features
Going forward, the Lexus Enform App Suite (handset version) will only contain features that match those available within Lexus Enform App Suite in your vehicle (Table 1). Roadside Assistance, Vehicle Information, Dealers Nearby and Lexus Mobile[2] will be removed from the Enform App Suite mobile app, but will be available within the My Lexus and Beyond app (Table 2), the Lexus Roadside Assistance app (Table 3) or via lexusdrivers.com (Table 4).

My Lexus and Beyond is a single, convenient location for valuable Lexus ownership tools.
Lexus Roadside Assistance is designed to give Lexus owners an added level of safety and convenience while on the road. This app makes it easy to initiate a call with Lexus Roadside Assistance at any hour, on any day of the week. The app also pinpoints nearby Lexus dealerships in case you need one when traveling.

Does this mean that you will have e-destination without a Safety Connect subscription? It seems like it.

Is it just me or is this a pretty minor update? I have had my GS for almost two years and in that time Enform updates have been insignificant at best. This is the very "first" upgrade. I would barely call it that!
Nice to see something...anything. But let's not all fawn over something that we should have seen maybe within 60 days of release. two years ago. If this is the first sign of Lexus actually joining the modern day of a connected vehicle, I am a great supporter. But there is a lot of lost ground to cover (and probably lawyers to fire!).
If this is a start of something new in their update process/willingness, I'm happy. But the specific changes indicated are just sort of "meh..".

Haven't checked my email about this but the first time and last time I used the Enform apps and eDestination was on the RX last year and I wasn't impressed. It's slow or just don't work sometimes. I haven't even setup the Enform yet on my GS because of this.. IMO why use eDestination when it is much faster to just type in the address in the Nav vs logging into Lexusdrivers.com and adding a destination there. Sounds cool because of the connectivity but boggling real world usage.
