I wish you could turn them off. Sometimes I hit the button by accident, and then the only way to cancel it is to say "cancel"??

I haven't found a button to quickly cancel the assistant yet, is that correct?

Drives me crazy!

Press and hold the voice button for a couple of seconds.

I will try this tonight!!! If it works then thank you so much!

Though might just invoke my google assistant as i have the android auto plugged in, but that's preferable to the Volvo rubbish to be honest!

Voice control is amazing in my car from navigate to, to play radio or DAB or artist to air conditioning on or lower fan etc
I find it very hard to catch it out.

Totally agree. I've come from a Mazda with the BMW style centre wheel/button, but this voice control is an absolute doddle to use - my soft southern accent probably helps

Connected up android auto today too, not sure why there's been so many negative comments about use of only half the screen, it's still a big size and fine for my use imo.
