check your USB drive format - it seems to require FAT32. My USB drive was initially Mac formatted and it didn't like it

Im getting the same issue.

Vehicle says software is up to date : 0S 3.3.2 (February 2nd 2023)

Can't seem to get it to want to update, even while being on 4G and logged in.

My car is a USA version of a 2023.5 110X.

I cannot find the map update app. I've looked on the HERE site but no joy. Can someone on this thread please put a link to the app and/or state the actual title of the app so that I can properly search for it?

Thanks !

Sure, onboard nav can be a helpful backup in those rare times I’m in a cell dead zone, so maybe I’ll run an update someday. But pretty low priority in this day and age.
IDK about your Defender, but mine has real-time traffic, warns me of red light cameras, etc. And I'm OCD and want everything up-to-date in my truck

Ok - found the Map Downloader app. Go to https://here.navigation.com/ and choose Land Rover then the Defender then any year (I just 2022 even though I have a 23.5). It'll take you to the Land Rover Route Planner site (which I don't know if that actually works w/ Defenders, but whatever). Log in or create an account (you do not have to associate a vehicle with it). Click on My Account in the upper right. Click on Downloads in the tree on the left. It'll probably say "There are no downloads associated with your account" but at the bottom in yellow, it'll have a prompt / link to download and install the HERE Map Downloader application. It auto-detected my OS (Mac in my case) and downloaded version 1.4.2.1 which I presume is the latest. Then you can go back to the site mentioned earlier in this thread to download the map updates. The latest map update said it needed a USB w/ at least 16.32 GB (16 and something) free.

This direct link MIGHT work to the HERE Map Downloader - not sure - feel free to try of course.

Enjoy! -Mattty

You don’t need a VIN attached to the account to download the MapDownloader app, and then go to the Pivi site to download the latest map.
