Vehicle dropped off: Tuesday April 20th - to begin update on April 21st
Loaner provided - Cayenne Based with some options
Vehicle was "doing the update" from Wed. until Friday - Service said they had no issues applying the update
Car picked up Monday April 26th (I was out of town for pickup)
So far so good - observations in no particular order

So far so good - observations in no particular order
- I lost no settings - everything was as I left it when I dropped the vehicle off
- wireless CarPlay "just worked" - no phone re-pairing was required
- smartlift is funcitonal
- homelink still functional
- custom button settings (the 2 diamonds) are still set as I left them
- PCM seems snappier
- Porsche Navigation has some nice new minor touches - nothing in particular, but it's different/improved
- Charging via PMCC now starts faster after plug in
- Charging via Tesla Gen2 Wall Chargers starts faster after plug-in and properly managed variable AMP's for dynamic loads
- changes to charging timers seems to have less time with the spinner "on screen" post change
- changes to charging profiles seem to have less time with the spinner "on screen" post change
- no visible improvement to charging time/profile functionality or UI
- ApplePod Casting is now supported
- AppleMusic now seems to remember where you left off rather than starting a play list over
- PMCC for MY'20 Taycan does _NOT_ show current charing percentage
- I have toggled PLC to vehicle on & off - no difference
- PMCC for MY'20 Taycan does not ask me to "add" my vehicle to the list so you can skip the PIN code entry
- Setting up "individual" drive mode (range, normal, sport, sports+, individual) now offers you the ability to save Sound & Regen settings - this seems new to me but I'm not sure
- I can still get in the car and touch he brake and just start driving without explicating touching the "ignition/power" button
- car was received with no pending PCM updates - I have a question into dealer as to if they applied all the updates post "install" - still waiting for answer - at this time I have no software updates pending according to PCM user interface
- WiFi hotspot still does not allow me "share" the vehicles hot spot
- PCM calendar application seems to pull data from my iPhone, but is painful slow and makes it unusable - also seems to be "off" by one day - more investigation required
- initial drive after pickup seems to use more power - but not enough driving to tell if this is just one time or a new normal - stay tuned
- vehicle's interactions with external AC chargers is "snappier" - with in car charging user interface seeming to be less confused and quicker to adjust to charging circumstances
- my PMCC was also update - but honestly I have no idea what changes were made or how to tell if I have the update.
- Dealer Service gave the vehicle back to me with no notes or comments other than it was completed and there were no issues during the update process.
