I updated to 18b a couple of weeks ago and there is over the air software button, but so far is says no new updates.
So not sure if they have turned that on for real yet.
I think everyone that has gotten 18c so far has gotten it a dealer.

While my truck was at the dealer the other day I asked him to install the 18c. He said they'd just gotten it an installed it on a couple of trucks on the lot to make sure it doesn't cause any issues. He said he'd rather wait a week-ish to install in mine just incase something in the update causes a problem.

Had a callback on my appointment. Apparently this has been an issue they are seeing a lot, mine was last updated in 2017 and they said they had a new update that should address the issue. Hopefully it is the Airplay one, if not I am hoping it at least fixes the BT issue.

When I asked how long it would take she seemed to imply I would be out of there within an hr.

If you have 2017 software that is Phase 2.5 at best , going to 18b is a big upgrade , they call is Phase 4.
So 18c is also big upgrade from 2017 software. I think once you get to 18b going to 18c is not a big deal.
18c is the Carplay one.

I wouldn’t say there is any drop in quality. It’s not perfect but it’s definitely better than what mine came with and it’s faster and smoother.

Mine got updated to 18B right after I see your post. I find that I lost voice guidance and voice control. Do you have any similar problem?
Just booked appointment to get it checked out, may force dealer to do another update...

I haven't even tried the voice control since the update. I was not impressed with it before. I will try it.
I did lose text messaging but it turns out I had to turn it back on in my iphone setting. While Disco was at the dealers I updated my phone to IOS 12.
It is a setting under bluetooth that I had to turn on again.

I think my update was carried out incompletely. When the voice control button on steering-wheel is pressed, nothing happens. Same occurs if I try to activate the voice function on screen.
In language setting screen, don't see the voice options anymore. For the main language option, it kept defaulting back to UK instead of US.
In regards to the voice control user friendly, there is a list with a key words concluded that works in this system.
