IQ.Pilot User Changelog

This changelog is written for everyday drivers and focuses on what you will notice on the road, as well as changes under-the-hood.

IQ.Pilot 1.0c

Navigate on IQ.Pilot

Navigate on IQ.Pilot is here. Search for a destination, pick from route alternatives, and let IQ.Pilot guide you turn by turn with live rerouting when you miss an exit. Along with on-screen-maps, you can see your position, the route, and upcoming turns all at once without leaving the driving view. Speed, turn, and highway exit handling are route-aware, so IQ.Pilot knows what's coming before you do. Mapbox is included at no cost to you for enhanced online map data and routing. On supported vehicles, Navigate on IQ.Pilot will command turn signals automatically based on the route. Map Curve speed control pulls limit data from OpenStreetMaps when offline and Mapbox when available.

When approaching a highway exit, IQ.Pilot now initiates the lane change toward the exit. If your car has Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM), it can perform the lane change fully automatically, there's no blinker nudge required. Without BSM, you confirm with a brief blinker push and IQ.Pilot takes it from there.

Speed Limit Control (SLC)

IQ.Pilot can now read and act on speed limits from your car's dash, Mapbox, TomTom, HERE, (included at no cost to our users!) and offline maps. You pick what mode you want in settings: display only, warn you when you're over, or actually adjust your cruise speed. You also pick which source wins when they disagree (dash, Mapbox, map data, highest, or lowest reported limit). There's a look ahead setting so IQ.Pilot can start reacting to an upcoming speed change before you hit the sign to decelerate to the limit before crossing into the new speed limit.

SLC can now also raise your cruise speed automatically when the speed limit increases, not just lower it. Toggle "confirm higher speed limit" off to enable this, SLC will adjust up to a higher accepted limit with a small prompt, without any confirmation input needed.

Camera Alerts (Speed Cameras, Red Light Cameras, and Surveillance / ALPR Cameras)

IQ.Pilot now detects upcoming speed cameras, red light cameras, and ALPR/surveillance cameras (including Flock Safety cameras) sourced from OpenStreetMap's and alerts you before you reach them. Each camera type has its own toggle so you can pick what you want to be warned about. Speed cameras can also trigger a speed reduction to the limit when detected if enabled. Camera data is sourced from OSM and is updated periodically.

IQ.Dynamic and Driving Behavior

In IQ.Dynamic blended mode, when IQ.Pilot sees a stop light ahead, and the model agrees you need to stop, and there's no lead car to track, it will now commit (force) to stopping on its own, no lead car required. Gas pedal overrides it instantly. The stop prediction horizon is adjustable in IQ.Dynamic settings. Behavior for curves, low-speed driving, stopped leads, speed-limit fallbacks, and vision-based stops is now configurable. On-device IQ.Dynamic tuning is accessible by double-tapping IQ.Dynamic in longitudinal mode selection.

Force Stops now include "Smooth Stops" under the same toggle thank's to SpysyWeeb! With Force Stops on, all stops including model predicted stops at signs and lights now use the smooth landing law, so every stop settles gently rather than dropping in hard. The minimum force stop distance slider enforces minimum distance when configured.

IQ.Dynamic on supported Volkswagen platforms including MQB, and PQ now support blending OEM Stock Radar ACC with IQ.Dynamic to allow for a blended longitudinal experience while maintaining E2E IQ.Pilot functionality.

Driving Models

IQ.Pilot updated to a new default driving model, Pop!

IQ.Pilot also has the latest bleeding-edge models, as always, including the latest TobyRL model, NoPP model, DeeperRL model, DeepRLv3/4/5 models, OP Model 16 Deep, and all future RL models as they are released.

IQ.Pilot maintains supports for all legacy models like Notre Dame (v1/3), FarmVille, WD40, etc.

Dashcam, Live View, and Alerts

• WebSSH now connects in under 15 seconds and connects the first time, every time.
• Live View in the Konn3kt app now processes full-resolution HDR input from the Comma 4 driver camera for a noticeably sharper, and more accurate picture. Live View performance was optimized, and microphone audio (one way) streaming is now included.
• You can fully disable dashcam recording from the Konn3kt app. Turning it off stops all recording, no logs, no video, no audio, full stop.
• Audible alerts now ramp in volume smoothly instead of cutting in abruptly for enhanced auditory alerts.
• On-road live streaming, with Two-Way Audio streaming from your IQ.Pilot devices camera feed live through the Konn3kt app. Onroad choppiness fixed, keyframe-on-demand enabled for instant camera switches, and variable network-condition-adaptive bitrate.
• Konn3kt can now take a snapshot from any camera (road, driver, or wide) on-demand, both onroad and offroad, and returns it as a JPEG instantly for a glance.

Volkswagen

Volkswagen support got a significant overhaul:

• Lateral and longitudinal tuning greatly improved.
• Accelerator override behavior now matches stock feel.
• MQB SnG handling improved for supported non-EPB ACC FtS vehicles.
• IQ.Pilot now supports all VW PQ and MQB CC-only and (A)CC-less cars, including CC-only PQ cars without an ADAS gateway.
• Volkswagen Passat B7 (PQ) with TRW450 now supports Stop-and-Go.
• Volkswagen MEB/MQBevo now only go on-road when in Drive and no longer in Park for 15 minutes after parking the car.
• Added Passat (PQ) model year ECU fingerprint.
• Konn3kt can now check EPS compatibility and LKAS coding status on VW MQB vehicles with a comma power.
• Konn3kt can enable LKAS coding on supported VW MQB vehicles with EPS that didn't ship with factory LKAS with a comma power.
• Volkswagen MQB/PQ now supports full Radar Blending with IQ.Dynamic for an enhanced E2E + Highway experience. (limited by OEM ACC minimum speed)

Volkswagen MEB and MQBevo

IQ.Pilot now officially supports the Volkswagen MEB and MQBevo platforms! Including the ID.4, ID.3, ID.5, Golf MK8, and Tiguan 2024+, up to model year 2026, as long as you have a compatible camera or gateway harness. Both LKAS and ACC are supported. This is the foundation of the release-meb branch, which is auto-synced from release and tailored specifically for these platforms.

Toyota/Lexus

Support added for Stop-and-Go and SDSU for Toyota/Lexus vehicles.

Hyundai/Kia

Fingerprint coverage expanded to cover more Hyundai/Kia variants that were previously unrecognized, and proper CAN-FD handling for newer HKG.

UI — Comma 4 (mici)

The Comma 4's offroad UI has been completely redesigned and has had major performance optimizations, it contains the same settings that BIG UI contains on Comma 3x/3 devices.

UI — Comma 3x and Comma 3 (tizi/tici)

The tizi/tici (Comma 3x and Comma 3) onroad and offroad UI has been fully redesigned as well, matching the new IQ.Pilot design language with a brand new home screen, status bar, settings menu's, and should be a much better experience.

UI Improvements

IQ.Pilot's on-road UI got a number of improvements:

• The Steering Assistance border now has a lower portion that distinguishes lateral only engagement from full engagement.
• IQLong Personality can now be cycled on-road by tapping the driver-monitoring icon on BIG UI devices. The icon color reflects the currently selected personality as well as an on screen current profile confirmation.
• IQLong mode IQ.Standard has been renamed to IQ.Chill to lessen confusion on long modes.
• IQLong mode can now be cycled on-road by tapping the nucleus icon in the top right corner on BIG UI devices. The icon changes to reflect IQ.Chill/Dynamic/Pilot.
• Fixed augmented road view calibration showing invalid calibration data on the model path / tracked lane lines by refreshing the matrix cache correctly for calibration to properly update on startup with Navigation enabled.
• Live Konn3kt accent color sync: whatever color you pick in the Konn3kt app flows to your device UI instantly.
• Revamped Branch switcher to properly switch branches, and updater has had bugfixes to fix install issues where the device claims to have updated but has not actually updated.

IQ.OS 3.14

IQ.OS 3.14 is bundeled with IQ.Pilot 1.0c. IQ.OS is available for all supported devices: Comma 3, Comma 3x, Comma 4, Konik A1/M, and Mr.One C3/C3(X)Lite. It's a lightweight OS based on Ubuntu 24.04, includes Bluetooth (BLE), has a much smaller install footprint, and is continuously optimized for IQ.Pilot.

• Konn3kt now stays online regardless of IQ.Pilot's status. If IQ.Pilot fails to boot, Konn3kt remains available so you can switch branches, SSH in, and recover remotely without a physical connection, including over cellular.
• Bug causing konn3kt setup time on a fresh install dropped from ~30 minutes fixed, setup dropped down to ~10 seconds.
• Automatic LocalAPI configuration in Konn3kt.
• Fixed Upstream Comma 4/3x/3 AGNOS Wi-Fi driver crash causing random crashes while driving.
• Fixed Comma 4 green-dot-matrix text aliasing issue.
• Fixed Comma 4 display calibration not showing for accurate colors.

Updater: Pre-download Mode

A new "Update Install Mode" setting in Software settings gives you control over how updates are applied:

• Predownload Only — updates download in the background but wait for you to confirm before installing.
• Predownload + Preinstall — downloads and installs automatically on next boot, as it was before.

Konn3kt Services

Konn3kt's WebApp has migrated to app.konn3kt.com

Connection stability between Konn3kt and IQ.Pilot (Konn3ktion) is greatly improved.

eSIM

eSIM detection, provisioning, and profile management groundwork is now built into the device. The app can detect whether your device has an embedded SIM, provision it, and manage profiles without a physical SIM swap. eSIM support requires a compatible data plan; Contact IQ.Pilot support in the discord for known working eSIM carriers and plans. Note: eSIM is experimental and generally requires a hotspot-style data plan or an MVNO that does not IMEI filter.
