I got a reminder text on Saturday that my appointment was today. I called and they confirmed it was today and not the 21st. So I took it in today and waited. I now have Carplay. No charge at Land Rover of Norwood, MA.
I have had screen freezing and showed them the video so that might be part of the reason why they didn't charge. My service adviser told me they would try to put it on but not all models can get it. Anyway the update and Carplay were both installed.
I installed the latest map update myself last night.
One weird thing, Under software update I show
Infotainment software version: S18C-18.37.1-222737
But under the Nav settings I show
InControl Touch Pro App version : 2018B.7-7447
So that wasn't updated. I didn't realize they were different.

Just had the update and CarPlay installed during a scheduled service and paid $99. Service guy said it would have been $300 had I not had some prior screen freezing. There was some wink-wink when he asked, so be sure to report your screen problems if you plan on updating.
Happy with it so far - at least as far as CarPlay goes... Haven’t dug into the inControl too deeply, but was disappointed to see some remnants of the old interface still lingering (e.g. Live).
It sounds to me like every year can/will receive the update, so I’m curious if anyone’s been told otherwise.

Only if I use the LR remote app to start the car beforehand.

I did notice a pattern with CarPlay not working with Remote App start. I just got the 18D SW update. I'm going to test and see if they fixed the issue. Service said there were a number of fixes in the update.

So, improvement, but not quite there.
