Default Enform Update today (08/20/2015)

Got an Enform Update this morning.

Anyone have a changelog? Looks like some application icons changed. Still no Spotify or Google Music

INTRODUCING: DESTINATION SEARCH

We hope you are enjoying your Lexus vehicle and your Lexus Enform App Suite service.1

We want to let you know that on August 20, we'll be replacing Bing with a new app called Destination Search on your App Suite. With Destination Search, you can find and save up-to-date points of interest, addresses, restaurants, shopping, entertainment venues and more.

Just follow these three easy steps to update your smartphone and multimedia system.

Note: In order to update your app, please make sure your phone's operating system is up to date with the latest version.

STEP 1: UPDATE YOUR PHONE
On or after August 20, accept the update to your Lexus Enform App Suite on your phone. This will update Bing with the new Destination Search app.

STEP 2: CONNECT YOUR PHONE TO THE MULTIMEDIA SYSTEM
The next time you connect your phone to the Lexus Enform App Suite in your vehicle, you will see a screen like the one pictured below prompting you to download a software update for the multimedia system.

In order to use Destination Search in your vehicle, the multimedia system software must be updated.


STEP 3: UPDATE YOUR MULTIMEDIA SYSTEM
Choose to perform the update now. If you choose "Later," you will be unable to use Destination Search on your multimedia system until the update is completed. This update will take approximately three minutes to complete.



When your update is completed, Destination Search allows you to:


• Search by address, category, and view search history.

• Search using voice recognition.

• View point-of-interest phone number and use the call button to connect directly to your destination.

• NEW! Sort search results by distance.

• NEW! Receive automated suggestions as you search on your smartphone, making it even easier to find what you're looking for.

We look forward to bringing you more exciting new additions to the Lexus Enform App Suite.

Sincerely,
Lexus Enform Customer Support

I'm on the road and just did the app update. I have a 2014 ES UL/ML. I got the app updates and Bing is gone. I can access Open Table, Yelp, And MovieTickets with no problem. However, the music apps, Slacker, Pandora, and iHeartRadio all lose connection and won't connect. Anyone who has updated, check if you can access all your apps. I have a iPhone 5 but latest iOS. I'm sure this is the Enform update 'cause things were working before. I'm bummed since I'm on a road trip and was going to listen to a Slacker comedy station.

OK, I have to update. Later on in the road trip I was able to connect to Slacker. Strange. Things seem to be working fine, now...FYI.

Default Enform Update - Total Fail

Tried to perform the update on my wife's new ISC and now no apps work at all. Spent an hour with customer service and they finally told me that another update was going to be pushed to the cars this week (guess there were some bugs). Then called our electronics tech at local dealer and he said many were having the same problem!
