Default 2023 XC60 Recharge - Pandora & Android app problems

Just got my 2023 XC60 Recharge a couple days ago. Wonder if anyone is experiencing these two issues:
- Pandora isn't one of the available apps to add. I search and it's not listed at all.
- I can't get my Android ZFold to pair with the car. Have tried many times over the past 2 days and the app always times out "due to inactivity"

Thanks for any pointers. I have emailed Volvo's support at international@volvocars.com too.

I just leased a 24 XC60 and was also baffled on why I can't get Pandora or Android Auto to work. Turns out the XC60 is running Android Automotive which is actually an OS (operating system) that is incompatible with Pandora and Android Auto. This is confusing as Volvo makes it sound like you can run Android Auto.
I find it annoying that Android named the two so similarly.

I ended upi loading Spotify although I prefer Pandora. Get Pandora through my bluetooth connection.
Hope you got your phone to pair. Dont have an answer for that one.

Yes I also gave up on Pandora and I'm using Spotify. I actually canceled my premium subscription to Pandora and am all in with Spotify now. Strange reason to switch music services but I wanted to have the app right on the main screen of the car. The Volvo app syncing with my Samsung Galaxy ZFold finally resolved itself but I don't know why. Maybe between software updates on the car, and also on the phone, it just worked itself out. Volvo support was not able to help me.
