So far so good. Using with a 2021 Volvo XC40 Recharge. Nice clean app. Edit: I still like the app but I believe this is causing issues with RCS. I get messages in the car and can reply while driving but if I check the message thread on my phone, my messages are not listed. I believe it is an issue with how the app is sending sms instead of a RCS reply.

This app is a big disappointment. This is my fourth Volvo and the first that has the app feature. It's painfully slow. And I miss the remote start on my key fob, why did they do away with it? I guess so we have to pay for the app when the warranty expires. Why not offer both options? I want to stand at my kitchen window and start my car, not wait two minutes for the app to finish, only to get an error message & have to do it over again. I hope Volvo reconsiders this before I buy my next vehicle.

Remote start very unreliable. Constantly claims the "ignition key is in the vehicle". App doesn't handle map intents so you cannot share a destination from other apps to your car. You can't book a service appointment. Notification actions like "lock" don't work most of the time. Widgets don't look at all like they're supposed to and don't work. Terrible app and getting worse with each update. The quality control is horrendous. Old version was light years better.
