Started getting telemarking calls in my XC60

2022-05-25

1) Downloaded VolvoManual earlier today
2) Couple hours later, I got into my car and received a medical bracelet telemarking call over the OnCall connection, within 1 Minute of driving. Simply BRILLIANT!
3) Called OnCall to inquire about the telemarking call, and attendant said “Yes, we’ve received many calls about it, and Volvo dealers have a software patch to block telemarking calls to the car.
4) Called the local dealer service, and of course, they’ve never heard of such a thing.
5) Dealer asked me to contact Volvo again and have Volvo send the relevant information to the Dealer. This is where I started laughing uncontrollably and disconnected.
6) I deleted VolvoManual off my phone.

I don’t think this is a coincidence. I think someone is tracking my phone GPS, then paring it with the XC60 GPS. When the 2 match, they call the car #. At least, that’s how I’d do it. LOL

Worked with old iPhone Xr, but not the new iPhone 12 Pro

2022-06-26

Unable to download manual for: English-United States, 2006 XC70.

I get a notification while downloading at 75% that says “Server error -1003” while using an iPhone 12 Pro running iOS 14.1

I just upgraded my phone from an iPhone Xr that also ran iOS 14.1 but I had zero problems with VolvoManual on there.

Can’t download manual

2022-07-27

Something happened with the latest update and now I cannot access my car’s manual. This used to be a super useful app, now it’s completely useless.

I don’t know if I like this app

2022-08-28

I am really unable to rate VolvoManual, when I try to open and select my country with the drop down, the list is shaded in such a way that it is unreadable. Changing setting and backlight does not help. Can you assist?

Volvo manual small text

2022-09-29

So the brilliant developers working for Volvo can’t figure out how to use the font size settings that are basically automatic if they don’t force an override. You end up with small text and lots of completely blank white space and bad page breaks.

Update made manual useless

2022-10-30

Just downloaded the latest update and now the manual doesn’t work. The options are too dark to see anything. I just want instructions on turning off the auto windshield wipers but I can’t access anything. So frustrating!!

It’s a manual

2022-12-01

Once a month VolvoManual is nagging about software update, Volvo has added a new language. This a dirt cheap way of saying…”hey, we’re still here. Don’t forget our brand name”. This has been going on for two years. So called updates. Give me a break!

V3.3 still 400 error

2023-01-01

Has the latest version. Downloading the manual for the car in my Volvo On Call app still fails. And my car isn’t even a year old yet (MY2017).

Tried three times. Got error 400 every single time.

It really shouldn’t be that hard. It’s been, what, about a year now since it failed the first time, and the one most critical feature still doesn’t work...

Consistently Broken

2023-02-02

Just updated to new release and it broke even further what was already broken. Integration with On Call app doesn't work for XC90. Previously could workaround by declining integration and manually installing manual. But now with upgrade even that is broken and I can no longer access manual for new car I just installed. Now I get a maintenance page trying to install manual again. Not up to anyone's standards Volvo. Seriously terrible.

Needs work

2023-03-06

Great cars but the mobile app and in-car interface are not at all easy or simple to setup.

Please fix iPad problem

2023-04-04

I LOVE VolvoManual! iPads don’t have the sound on/off button like iPhones do. Unfortunately the videos call for that switch to be on. Are you following me? Therefore you cannot get sound in the videos when you’re using an iPad. Please fix this and I’ll give you a 5 star review

Blank Screen for Guide

2023-05-06

I get a blank, black screen for the Guide section of VolvoManual . Other sections are working, but not seeing the guide results in poor review. Please fix. Thanks.

Not better than the downloadable PDF

2023-06-06

In fact, in many ways, worse. VolvoManual doesn’t remember what page you were on, if you switch to another app and come back to it after VolvoManual has showdown in the background. Also, the content in the PDFs don’t exactly match the hyperlink version of the manual.

There are so many ways this could be improved.

Not working

2023-07-08

Please fix issues in ios 12
Not working in iphone x

A little week but you get the data

2023-08-08

The user interface is a little odd, but the most annoying thing is that the light font is very difficult to read. It could be a lot easier to find your vehicle

Great app, very beautiful

2023-09-09

The integration with the On Call app is broken, and information is kind of hard to find, even with the search function, that's why it's 3 stars. No alternatives here, so I'll use it, but the broken integration is a disappointment.

Model year

2023-10-11

VolvoManual would be much better if you could go back more years than just 2006. Then VolvoManual could help a lot more people with older cars especially Volvo enthusiasts who have old classic Volvos. For example, 240s, V70s, 850s etc.

Still uses with Metric and Temp measurements

2023-11-11

Despite an update still stuck on Metric/Celsius. Will not enable battery charging constantly on “paused” please fix. I love VolvoManual and I’m in medical sales and utilize every ounce of VolvoManual on a daily basis.

Thank you

Great Information

2023-12-13

Looking to get a Volvo and going over the manual is really helpful. Only thing, edge swipe gesture should go back to the previous page, not open the side menu

400 forever(fixed)

2024-01-13

Update: They finally fixed 400. Good job!

I have never seen a brand can leave a serious problem there forever. As a software engineer, I can see it’s a not a very hard problem to solve(cuz it’s easy to repeat), but it’s just there forever. Just for the attitude towards product, my next car won’t be Volvo.

Does not support older model Volvos.

2024-12-25

Does not support older model Volvos, including V70. In age of easy digital scAnning, you’d think they would at least learn no to a PDF of ALL Volvo models made in past 20-30 years.

Never work

2024-12-25

Never work because I never download my car data successfully. Opp

Error 400 workaround

2024-12-25

VolvoManual actually works, but the integration between the Volvo On Call app and VolvoManual is broken. When you open VolvoManual and you have the Volvo On Call app already installed and configured VolvoManual asks if you want to download the manual for your car; if you say yes VolvoManual gives you server error 400. To make it work say no then manually add your car by selecting the car year and model. Volvo should update their apps to make sure the integration is functional.

Great app, very beautiful

2024-12-25

The integration with the On Call app is broken, and information is kind of hard to find, even with the search function, that's why it's 3 stars. No alternatives here, so I'll use it, but the broken integration is a disappointment.

Very good way to become familiar with key functions

2024-12-25

VolvoManual is well designed to work on either iPhone and iPad to get to know your new Volvo. We picked up an XC90 T8 at the Factory Delivery Center and had not driven one before. We'd only briefly sat in one to decide on interior options. We just knew we wanted a second Volvo XC90 and to replace our older V40. Realizing how much new tech the new XC90 and T8 in particular include, I needed to become more familiar with Sensus and especially the instrument panel to understand the hybrid system operation better. VolvoManual was a great primer, and I've found it even more useful when using the search feature. Navigating VolvoManual I feel does expose you to everything pertinent, and keeps quite a few things hidden until you start searching.

VolvoManual all doesn't feel like a full replacement for the manual which is unfortunate as it feels like it could be and offer so much more being far more interactive. The videos that has could be more detailed to give a new owner for more insight. The T8 is full of functions that I feel a more interactive app experience would best help expose new owners to all of it's powers/secrets. After feeling like I'd exhausted VolvoManual I started reading the manual. It offered a little more insight and actually having used VolvoManual, the manual was more interesting to explore since I now knew where I wanted to focus.

Another note, VolvoManual does resemble the built in app manual in Sensus so it makes it easier to use once you start going back and forth. I originally needed it to find out exactly how large the fuel tank is (50L) for the first time I put gas in our T8 to make sure I was filling it and not just letting the auto stop dictate the fuel amount.
