Has anyone upgraded to 2.5 software on their 2022 XC60? I see that it is theoretically available but I haven't gotten the OTA notification on my car yet.

The release notes talk about CarPlay improvements but I don't see any detail as to what they may be. Anyone have a chance to try it out and can report back?
In particular, curious about:

- Wireless CarPlay support (or compatibility with the wide range of after-market adapters that plug into the car's USB to create a wireless connection for CarPlay) - I'm guessing that native wireless support might not happen but hopefully the adapters will at least start working

- Incoming call info in instrument display and steering wheel call answer/hangup (this is a MUST)

- CarPlay navigation displayed on instrument panel and/or HUD (this would be a great improvement, although the native Google Maps in the car is one of the few things about the AAOS platform that I really like)

TIA!

 

I upgraded today and the announced Google Assistant interface with SiriusXM did not happen, at least for me. Volvo troubleshooting it, but another trip to the dealer tomorrow. Appreciate the upgrades, but really, they should work!

 

CarPlay take over your display screen and mirrors your phone, more of less. It is not actually integrated with the car like AAOS is. Very unlikely that CarPlay info, in its current form, will be displayed anywhere outside of CarPlay app. AAOS, for all its problems is much more integrated with the car. That said, any information on wireless adapters that work with Volvos running AAOS would be appreciated.

 

Integrating the navigation into the instrument panel is ultimately a software issue for Volvo. Apple already supports the second display for navigation in the CarPlay protocol (and it works on some cars). The car DOES "know" when CarPlay is displaying navigation as it blanks Google Maps from the instrument panel, so there's SOME level of communication already in place.

Regarding call info on the dash and the ability to answer/hang up calls from the steering wheel controls, this has been standard in virtually all cars that have built-in CarPlay for years - including pre-AAOS Volvos. The voice control button DOES trigger Siri; so the fact that it doesn't answer/hangup calls when using CarPlay is, again, a Volvo software issue.

HOPEFULLY these will be resolved in the coming releases.

 

Thanks.

 

Got it.
Tested it.
CarPlay has the exact same issues as before
