If I could give it zero stars I would. It's completely broken. Access denied. Put in a tech support request & received an acknowledgement but that's all. App used to work then suddenly it didn't. It has been rendered useless. I forced stopped, deleted cache & data, deleted the app, restarted phone several times. It's the only way the vehicle can be remote started & I need to leave my dog in the vehicle for a few minutes when we're traveling. So this is a huge inconvenience for me.

Works well when it lets you log in, which is only 10% of the time. Other 90% is either being told your login info is wrong (it's not) or it just hangs in the Signing in screen. I had to delete/reinstall the app AND reset my password just to get it to let me back in, even though my PW never changed... Update 2023... Just as terrible. It can easily tell when the car is in use or not but starting it remotely, even standing right beside it, is next to an impossible task for Volvo. Update 2025: same.

This should be a free app considering the price of the car. It's also so much slower than fobs that can remote start. I'm surprised my fob doesn't have the option when cheaper, and crappier cars have it on their fobs now. I don't want to have to pull out my phone always to start the car remotely. Not to mention if service isn't good then it won't connect and won't work. A fob will always work since it's a regular radio frequency. I think if it was more like the My Chevy App, it would be better
