2021+ plus are not the same maps as HERE as provided in the link for Unconnect 4. Uconnect 5 maps are provided by TomTom not HERE, you should already know the provided site is irrelevant to Uconnect 5 systems. Map support and upgrades through that website end at MY20.I think this is pretty straight forward .

It's really annoying when my stand-alone TomToms have already gotten their FREE complete NEW map upgrades for the 4th quarter of 2022. A completely new map every quarter.
But yet my TomTom maps in Uconnect 5 are a year older than my vehicle.
Uconnect needs to fix the TomTom server connection so they can update. It always says the server is not connected. This is total BS when I can pull up TomTom maps on a cell phone through an app and they are up to date, but yet in a 60G vehicle my maps are going on 3 years out of date. The freaking speed limits increased in my state but my Uconnect 5 gives me over-speed warnings saying I am driving faster than the posted speed limit. My stand-alone TomToms and phone have the correct new speed increases.
Uconnect 5 is a standard platform for outdated Android 8.1. Uconnect 4 with maps provided by HERE is a none standard platform with in-house software created by Uconnect. This is why Uconnect 4 systems must upgrade maps by ordering a USB stick from the provided Uconnect/HERE website and upgrade that route. They got away from this and switched to Android because what they created with Uconnect 4 sucks. Stand-alone TomTom units are dedicated nonstandard platform GPS units. When Uconnedt 5 was released Chrylser proclaimed the maps with TomTom would update automatically and stay up to date in real time. That was just another lie from the Uconnect team.
Uconnect 5 Android 8.1 and IOS/CarPlay don't like to jive together but they try. Android Auto works flawlessly, go figure.
LIES! BUT WAIT! Look at the fine print in the first video at @0:06 & 1:03.
It is really stupid to make a video like this and then put fine print in it. What is the point of this video? Bait and switch? This video came out AFTER I upgraded my vehicle and was told the maps in Uconnect 5 would always be up to date. 360L and SiriusXM listener profiles (not to be confused with the Uconnect driver profiles) have always been broken in Uconnect 5 and do not work.
