Anybody got update on AP1?
I got email from Tesla that says to keep my car connected to WiFi to get update. (I’m have 2016 AP1)

Version 9 on AP1
- Thread starter Sandrosia
- Start date
I have an AP1 Model S, sitting on wifi, waiting for v9, as well. Even with a reduced feature set I think it will be a welcome update.
I was reading email I got from Tesla and it says dash cam on model s. There is no mentioning of its coming only on AP2 or 2.5 maybe we getting it too
Also waiting for it on AP1. Been checking my wifi stats every hour or so, no spike in traffic yet

I had the same thought after reading the email and the version 9.0 web page. Blindspot Monitoring, a feature that explicitly requires AP2/2.5, is called out with the phrase "cars with Full-Self-Driving hardware." But the Dashcam feature just says, "your car’s forward-facing camera." So hopefully that includes AP1.
Not sure yet how I feel about functionality being removed, such as the ability to have 2 apps onscreen at once. I'm guessing they have telemetry that shows most people only ever use a subset of apps, which is probably why nav is "always on" and the music app now has its own icon on the bottom row.
Looks like I'll have to completely re-train my muscle memory for the position of the climate controls.
what are cars w/o AP at all called? APZero? Mine is a 2013

It's not, video never leaves the mobileeye chip up there....I had the same thought after reading the email and the version 9.0 web page.

So that's why they made the browser completely non-functional, so that people stop using it in order to get telemetrics saying people don't use 2 apps at the same time. When the browser worked I used to use it and backup camera as the two apps.

Sadly, it looks like you're right. Neither AP1 nor AP2 get Dashcam. It's only for AP2.5:

I just received the notification on my car for the update, but I'm not going to install it. Not seeing much upside for AP1 cars, and frankly more downside with the Model 3 UI implemented on Model S & X vertical screens. I'll keep my split screen apps for as long as possible, thank you very much.
I just got update before sleep, took about 20 min to install on my 2016 AP1 model s. The responsiveness is not bad, considering it using 2011 era Tegra 3. One of my new favorite feature: send location from phone.
