Question Where is the "Routines" on MBUX? Anyone have it?

Does anyone know how to setup Routines on their X254 GLC43? I can't find the app on my home screen, even though the manual says it should be there.

My car has a May '24 manufacture date and the software version is RL_NTG7_E445.001_23364AC3. Would very much appreciate it if any current owners can verify if they this functionality.

Thanks!

You do not have it. It is on NTG8 and beyond.

Routines is MB's way to calling If this then that commands. (IFTT), let's you set a condition and the action when a given condition is met. This allows thing to happen like if temperature drops below a certain value, the heated seats comes on for example.

NTG8 was first available on the all new W214 E-Class, MBUX 3 then the C236 CLE got it. In the case of the X254 GLC and W206 C-Class it started getting it for model year 2025. not even the W223 S-Class got it since that came with NTG7 also first vehicle to have NTG7, later the new glc and c as you known have.

As for the reason why it is listed in a 2024 model year manual, I am not sure why other than that they might had planned to put MBUX 3.0 in the 2024 model year vehicle but scrapped it last minute. Check the digital manual inside the vehicle as well.

Thanks for the response, at least that tells me why I don't see it. Perhaps they'll eventually upgrade it to NTG8? (fingers crossed)

To make you feel better, you might not find Routines that big of a deal so the fear of missing out is not present.

That’s annoying, especially since the manual says I should have it. Also, the manual (and build) saying I should have various LED digital light features but a few of them don’t work.It feels like a bait and switch.

I really just need it for one purpose; to be able to turn on the seat and steering heat every time I start the car or when it’s below a certain temp.

From what I learned on the forums, it appears that they might had possibly wrote the manual prior to having the vehicle (model year) ready, apparently they might had did a last minute change on the actual vehicle as a result.
