To echo above..... imo, the P8 SHOULD have more functionality! The good news is, it has a chance to be comparable to the Sensus vehicles, at least a proven concept there albeit different OS.Remember the VC app is shared by all Volvo models — BEV, PHEV & ICE — and infotainment OSs — AAOS & Sensus — as well as all regions. This update appears to be improvements for Sensus, ICE/PHEV vehicles and the EU region.
Once again, VC shows how it makes decisions that are penny wise but pound foolish. Should not be using the same app for the AAOS infotainment model. People with an ICE/PHEV vehicle and a P8 using the same VC app can clearly see how inferior the AAOS instance is. WTF. While there is functionality for the P8 I’d to see on the VC app ( such as PAAK or charge scheduling), it would be nice to have at least comparable functionality to the Sensus vehicles.
That was in 5.3.0 👍🏼I was just pre-cooling the Car before leaving work.....and noticed this additional feature that wasn't there before ! The ability to set DAY and TIME re-occurence.....now I NEED to test it out for sure !!

The 2 times I tried to set up a timer via the app, it failed and I got the error "The timer could not be set". lolThat was in 5.3.0 👍🏼
Even he standard “Start” function does error out from time to time so not surprised if the Timer doesn’t work / inconsistentThe 2 times I tried to set up a timer via the app, it failed and I got the error "The timer could not be set". lol
To be fair, this was after updated to 5.3.0. I haven't tried again since the newest update.
Do you mean Bluetooth pairing, or Volvo Cars app pairing?.I lost my phone being paired to the P8 and will not pair as the car does not see the phone.
