Volvo On Call

In general I think that I could say that the app is great but the major drawback is that as soon the winter comes along and you want to start up your heater in the car via the app it does not work and you receives the standard error message i.e. An unspecified error occurred on the server. Please try again. Sorry to say but every winter the same, I wonder if the competitors are as bad as this? anyone who knows? Please let me know

2016 V60: Apps usually cost between 1 and $5CAD.. This one costs $200CAD a year and is unreliable and lacks functionality.. So happy you don't build cars like you do apps.

Widget for parking heater is missing!

When wlll the samsumg gear s3 with Tizen be supported?

2017 XC90. Climate /preconditioning doesn't work. Remote start works 50% of the time with long delays, and doesn't start conditioning, so not sure of the purpose anyways. Not mentioning that I had to call volvo to get pin, otherwise you cannot install app.

Does as advertised, albeit with a delay. Relatively unreliable, as sometimes it fails to communicate with your vehicle, or at least that it has failed to communicate with your car.

I just updated the app and it stopped working. It keeps saying that the connection times out. This is really frustrating

Man kan inte redigera eller skapa egna kategorier i körjournalen. Bilen har en termometer, men appen visar temperatur från extern källa. Det betyder att när bilen står inomhus så visar appen kanske -20' när det i själva verket är +15' där bilen står. Parkeringsvärmaren visar alltid "Ready". Man vet inte om den är aktiv eller inte. Man ser varken bränslenivå eller laddningsgrad, vilket påverkar om värmaren kommer att starta eller inte. Du vet alltså inte om du möts av en iskall bil eller om värmaren har kunnat göra sitt jobb. Däremot verkar det vara jäkligt viktigt att visa spolarnivå...

Rip off!

very good app.

Excellent app and works well all the time

Great application with a lot of useful functions, however recent versions have many issues communicating with the car, giving errors when trying to start the car and having to wait even 15 minutes at times to manage to start it

Plenty of functionality

Love the heater start and send to car function for the navigation!

Only started using app 2 days ago and it is awful. For all the money you charge for the vehicles i would expect the app to run a lot smoother especially when this is the only option for remote start. Not impressed at all. ????

The tab navigation is not good. Stick to the native Android menu and don't use some iOS rip-off

Since moving to using Google maps you can no longer select an arbitrary point on the map as a destination and send to car. Instead the map jumps to the nearest location "known" to Google. This has made one of the best uses of the app unuseable. Please fix this!

Why is it not possible to change language in the app? I don't want to change the language of the entire mobile OS just to get the app in the language I prefer (and the same as in the car itself). Even worse when I discovered that the Volvo Manual app gets the language from the VOC app and no possible way of changing this. Please fix!

Had the car two weeks & still not registered eventhou countless calls supplying details, cheap gimmick that does not work

After installing the latest version, everything is great.

Doors are unlocked function has quit working. Remote start works. . . sometimes. I just sent Volvo $250 to extend this service and it isn't worth a plugged nickel. I agree with all the others who say Volvo needs much better software engineers. Several months later and I still continue to get a "Cannot start your Volvo" message. But. . . Who cares? Apparently not Volvo.

With the switch to Google maps it is no longer possible to use map to navigate to an arbitrary location. If you for instance long press a public dirt road in a larger forrest the navigation marker drops several km off and snaps to some other location. Same thing in towns where it snaps to closest known address and not the point I selected. This renders navigation quite unuseful.

Would be useful to have additional sensors such as tyre pressure, oil level, battery voltage, key fob usage and battery condition. These messages and sensors are available on the car dashboard, so why not in the app?

Version 4.0.3 is OK again to be used in China. New features including a new designed GUI, a new map with both standard and satellite view, a vehicle detail view to show technical and statistic information of your vehicle, a short access to Volvo manual. One issue is when selecting an item among the searched map destinations, the map doesn't show the selected position but stay at the point where the vehicle parks.

Doors and windows check function has disappeared!!!

With this update the driving journal is back. Thanks!

Remote locking no longer works. Worked fine after update until now.

Looks like map cannot accept paste from clipboard anymore. That's annoying. Update: App updated today - May 25, 2017 and this issue has been solved. Rating upgraded.

The previous version I could scroll easily in my trip and categorize them by looking the map now is impossible ,instead then improve went 2 steps back .

NOT available in China !!!

Nice

Works ok, besides the annoying Windows Open warning although the windows are closed. Somehow it can send me info like temperature and doors unlocked, but I can't send a command to lock the doors if needed. App needs to be updated and rehauled to be worth the price.

App is god awful. Only thing it can do consistently is tell you wash fluid levels. Would not renew membership with this service if it was 1 dollar let alone $60.

Very buggy and often incorrect info shown. Parking climate fails often. No error logs... Doesn't even show if T8 is charging or not.

Please make it possible to share location from Google maps to this application. For example, I'm using Android, open Google Maps, find a place I want to drive, click the share button, select "Volvo On Call" and the location from Google maps is sent straight to my car. This would be excellent. Lets me realistic here, I'm never going to use the map inside of the On Call app, the majority of the world uses Google Maps, so please make this happen!

Issues with the locked/unlocked reporting. Occasionally says unlocked when it isn't. Trip map display only shows start and end points. Unlike the similar app for Range Rovers, the actual route does not record.

Are 2 main things that are really a must be in this app: allow to send from Google Maps a location directly to the Car. The travel log should show and calculate the real travel not point to point straight since the distance is wrong. Please make this happens.

The remote start widget works once or twice on my pixel but then I have to remove the widget and reinstall it. Very frustrating. Other issues like incorrect lock/unlock and remote start never working were car battery related and were fixed with a vehicle software update.

Now the battery level is finally back for my XC90 T8. But it doesn't show an accurate measurement, not even close ????

App notifies that car is unlocked at 2 am consistently, even know the car is locked. Remote start is the only attractive feature, making this service overpriced.
