Agree I’ve had it for over 6 months but it is limited, ie you can’t remotely start car, guess that’s a security feature, or unlock.

So you can do all the things that are freely available by simply looking at the VOC app?! Not particulatly ground breaking.

If it were Alexa in the car that might be useful.

True, but then I can do pretty much anything I can do with Alexa voice control another way, play music, switch lamps on and off, get a weather forcast etc.. But it simply the convenience of voice control, asking Volvo On Call how much fuel you have left while eating your breakfast etc.
