Default Software Update Notes

The MoCo use to publish the release note for software updates, now I never know what the update is all about. I looked over on the SIP and didn't see anything there either. Anyone know what this last release fixed or included...or where to even go to find out??

I did it today, nothing jumps out at me as being different, so far.

Wife and I did a quick 100 miles today, and I played with the radio/nav the whole time. Not sure what it was all about.

Unless you have an android phone, you wouldn't likely see anything different, just bug fixes

Just installed 21.20.22.00 and now the latest dealer database 2020-2 successfully installs on my GTS. Before the dealer update would appear to load but when I checked it still had the old 2019 version afterward. Other than that I don't see any major changes but I'm sure they killed a few bugs, maybe added few. My dealer moved to a new location this year, now their new address shows up if I use the nav to get there.

Installed it today. Would be nice to have notes on what the updates or changes are. I work with machine software. Company policy is all changes must be noted, and dated so its easy to tell what's going on. Not hard to do.
