Thanks for the heads up. Better late than never with this but looking forward to the update!

Amazing, something that MY22 folks seem to be absolutely up in arms about, especially on the other media pages, such as Facebook, and only one reply to this positive news in over 24hrs..
I’m looking forward to this but I need to get the car beyond v2.0 first!

GREAT! ! ! ! BUT the $1M question is does it FIX the USB Audio issue?
i dont have an apple phone! so having carplay missing was not a deal breaker anyway!
Now its just a waiting game to see when the car get the update!

Couldn't see any reference to whether it's wireless or wired, though!

Well if the USB issue isn’t fixed then it will need to be wireless!

I am happy to get CarPlay, USB audio would be the icing!

I was told, categorically, from Volvo that there were no plans to allow USB data read, that was 6 weeks ago and things seem to change, I am assuming its wired therefore data enabled unless its somehow App sensitive. What is possibly encouraging is the Polestar announcement for their V2.2 given it includes as part of the features 'Front USB ports opened for external device input (eg gaming, music, Apple CarPlay)
Who knows if that is part of the Volvo V2.2.
Fingers and toes crossed!!

@Fibrous, Thats reading like front USB will be open again to allow data!
I heard that Carplay is "wired" so they will HAVE to open data in that case! dont know how it could be done any other way! Given how Polstar are saying Front USB are open, and underneath both cars are using the same electronics it would make sense! now its just a waiting game for the update to drop! i did read some where ETA 3rd July OTA will start and 1 week before ( Next week in that case ) dealerships ( VIDA access )

so i guess its watch this space!

I wonder whether the maps will appear in the driver display now too with this version of CarPlay. In the previous Sensus models all you got was a split screen on the centre screen and nothing in the driver display

Look at this: https://www.swedespeed.com/threads/a...hicles.655641/

No guidance is shown in the driver display
