Isn't anyone able to read the msg after the update?
We all like to know what has been updated, right?

Assuming I got the same update (no idea if it’s WST2) it’s for the on-board diagnostics of the HVB, where we get a yellow circle of impending doom rather than red circle of instant death. After the install/next time I got in the car, notification simply said it had been successfully installed and disappeared after a few seconds, which is annoying, better to retain them as an audit trail.

What does Porsche mean with 'Display and warning concept'?

These messages... only THEY know what they mean.

It looks as if they pulled it straight from the commit message in GitLab.

I had to examine the wording. In German, “Konzept” (concept) is not the same as concept we are familiar with. Instead, it refers to a software strategy or logic. Is this a poor translation?

Please, German forum members, is my assumption correct? Is the word “concept” being misused?

I'm in Sweden and I got the message yesterday. I tried do install but failed—my HV battery was initially at 83% and the installation process froze, and then automatically rebooted; when I got the message next time, my battery was then at 80% and the install button was grey... I've now charged to 85% and will try to install again, fingers crossed...

Perhaps we need another update to "update the display of OTA update description concept". ;)

Honestly... It's not there :p ;)
Clicking on it opens a menu with a single entry - to read the text on the right.

Some more info is displayed after switching off the car, when hitting the button to process with the install. Translation:
High Voltage Battery Calculator (WST2)
<info about features disabled during the install>
This update improves the display and warning concept of your high voltage battery's on-board diagnostic function.
<info about how to launch the install>
I'm actually surprised I got it, given my Porsche Connect subscription expired and I didn't renew it.
