Volvo Cars

Remote controls for Volvo drivers

Volvo Cars is the companion app for owners of supported Volvo vehicles. It brings selected car controls, charging information, servicing tools and vehicle guidance together in one place. It is best suited to drivers who want to check or manage parts of their car experience from a phone, rather than relying only on the vehicle’s controls and displays.

Climate, access and charging

Depending on the car and market, the app can let you remotely lock or unlock the vehicle and adjust the cabin climate before a journey. Owners of compatible fully electric and plug-in hybrid models can also check battery charge levels and electricity consumption.

• Pre-heat or pre-cool the cabin remotely
• Lock and unlock a supported Volvo
• Review charging information for electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles

Service and vehicle information

The app also provides practical ownership tools. You can arrange a service appointment, look up information about your Volvo and consult manuals when you need help with a feature or routine task. Support options may include contacting Volvo specialists through the app.

Availability and reception

Not every function is available for every Volvo model or in every country. The available controls and services depend on the vehicle and local support, so the app’s usefulness will vary between owners. Volvo Cars is listed in the Auto & Vehicles category and has recorded 1,000,000+ installs. Its rating is 3.85/5 from 58,192 reviews, giving a broad indication of how users have received the app.
