Managing multiple profiles and bluetooth devices

[@snackman2005]

We just bought our 2023 Volvo XC 40 late last night. So I am binge watching your videos. The sales person was as helpful as she could. They were literally closing down as we were buying our car. So she didn't have time to go over everything. Your videos are very helpful.

[@JebRevsUp]

Oh thanks so much. Glad it has been helpful. Congrats on the XC40. Still love it going into my third year!

[@abalem]

Great content, thanks ! However, I'd like to understand something : is the "care" key shown here also a master key ? Does it have all the privileges of the black key (plus you can set a speed limit), or does it have to be tweaked by Volvo beforehand to become so ?

[@jayj.r.1947]

Very helpful. Volvo should sponsor your videos.

[@JebRevsUp]

Appreciate you watching!

[@GeoPhilips]

Thanks! This answers my question. I especially liked the fact that the profile switch also changed the connected Bluetooth phone.

[@JebRevsUp]

You are welcome and if you have any other questions let me know so that I can create content that is relevant for owners Thanks

[@GeoPhilips]

@@JebRevsUp not a content question but is it true that Volvo removed Park Assist Pilot from all 2023 model year vehicles?

[@gacopl]

@@GeoPhilips yes they did if you have google you dont have park assist pilot just 360 cameras its a bummer

Hi. Thanks. I have a new Volvo and this answers some of my questions. Great. AN open question is how can I "protect" my profile. E.g. someone is using my key, changing seat position and I do not want to have this setting safed. I found some explanation online but they seem to be for an older Android front end surface. BR and thanks

[@JebRevsUp]

Franz in the old Sensus system, you could only save a new setting if the key was on the backup reader usually in cup holder. This protects your saved profile. You could also protect your profile in settings. Unfortunately this is not possible anymore and I’m not thrilled about it either. Here is what I do. On your driver door is the memory buttons. Press M and in 5 seconds press 1 or 2 and save seat and mirror. If anyone messes up your profile just hit that save button and you are back to normal and it re-saved on the key. Hope that helps

Great video🙏. Would love to see the standard sound system of a Xc40 recharge

[@JebRevsUp]

Till thanks for the comment. One of my favorite things about the XC40 is the acoustics are really good. The high performance system is the standard and it is 10 speaker system and is quite crisp. However I definitely recommend the Harmon Kardon. It has 14 speakers and a sub woofer which really makes all the difference. If you always put music on when you get in the car then it is $800 well spent.

Hi! Thanks for the video. I'm trying to do it but the notifications screen just doesn't slide; when I grab the screen from the top and drag it down, nothing happens. It may be locked somehow? Thank you!

[@paulblackwell3148]

Thank you as always

[@jac4401]

Thats gr8 explanation on the keyfob Im just wondering can u share whats on the Android Appstore at the HUD? ie KZbin, Facebook etc major apps is it there? Thanks!!

[@JebRevsUp]

That's a great question. I have not seen any major apps like Facebook, KZbin. I started using mine last November and since then the number of apps have grown a lot. Most are streaming, radio, charging, parking etc.. I am sure there will be more added over time. That is what I love about OTA updates and having a play store. Happy holidays!

[@jac4401]

@@JebRevsUp thats good to know, OTA update is the killing feature indeed. Hows yr pilot assist experience?

[@JebRevsUp]

Sorry I didn't see your question. I love pilot assist. I usually work 55 hours a week and a lot of them are late nights/long days. In the past I have found myself drifting or driving badly because I'm in a hurry to get home. Now I just let the pilot assist drive and manage. I feel safer and get to enjoy great music on the Harmon Kardon system and feel happy that I burn zero gas in the process. That whole experience is what makes me love my brand! Have a great holiday season.

[@manuelcorrea6304]

Can you create 2 profiles with 1 key ? I read the orange is limited and also would like to keep it stashed .

[@AndyFerdean]

@Jebbie what happened to the Volvo Digital Key? It was supposed to work with your phone. Was it canceled? I can't find it anywhere!

[@JebRevsUp]

Hi Andy, I am planning to order an EX30 this year and my understanding is that it will come with the digital key. I also believe it is going to be on EX90. However I know longer work in Volvo sales so cannot comment on any other models. It just happened to be something that came up in my research for the new car. Would love to to have this and park assist pilot! Thanks for watching

[@AndyFerdean]

@@JebRevsUp thank you. The Digital key was a feature advertised for their cars a few years ago (5-6 years) but it seems the feature was dropped. I can open and start my car (S60 MY23) with the Volvo cars app, but I'm not able to drive it unless I have the key inside the car.

[@dony3469]

Hi, thanks for posting these videos. Is there a way to edit an existing profile and if so how? I want to change some of my settings but don't seem to be able to find an option to do this. On my previous V60 it was easy to do but not as obvious on my new V60 Recharge.

[@JebRevsUp]

Hi Don thanks for the question. Can you confirm specifically what are the settings you are trying to change?

[@dony3469]

@@JebRevsUp I want a different radio station to come on and also seat and steering wheel heat adjusted.

[@JebRevsUp]

Don, thanks for the reply. In order to adjust the steering wheel heat and seat heat, first open the climate control panel. At the top right there are three dots to expand the menu for climate control. It will give you an option to make seat heat come on automatically and you can also choose then level you want it on. With the radio stations, the only thing I can think of as an option is to save favorites by opening up the menu and hitting star on the ones you like. I would also suggest that you can also open up the settings menu and click on profiles and then connect a key to the profile so that it saves all your setting to the key. Hope that helps, wishing you a wonderful holiday season.

[@gacopl]

Great videos is it possible to connect two volvo ids to two profiles ? so me and my wife can manage car from volvo cars app ?

[@JebRevsUp]

Michal, yes absolutely you can both control the car. First you should create a separate profile for each, make sure the second profile has make an owner selected. Then each of you create separate Volvo cars account. Each profile has one account, same with Google. However both of you will have access to car through the app. Thanks for watching

[@ohandanotheronebitesthedus6247]

I only have the orange key and im locked into a profile that sucks and wont let me change

[@CraigCollins]

I have a new C40 and when pairing with the app and searching for the keys they are never found. I have 2 keys in the car in the key nfc under the armrest but no go. Any ideas what to do?

[@JebRevsUp]

The only time something like that happened to me I was not actually in the owner 1 profile to start with. Go to the top of the screen. There are two small bars. Pull that down and it will have active profile in top left and notifications window underneath it. No matter what it says, Physically tap that profile and the tap the owner 1 profile (original one car came with even if renamed) and ensure car is in that profile. The try and see if it goes out of guest/secondary owner and into owner 1 and if that solves it. If that doesn’t work speak to your service advisor you may have a larger issue. Good luck and hope that helps.

[@tocor71]

Thanks

[@jscons7424]

I have all key lost issue and I got a red key programmed via vida app. Now my profile setting is inactive to select, i can only select the guest round bottom but profile 1 and 2, it’s inactive. What should I do

[@JebRevsUp]

The red key are very restricted keys. Typically what you would give to valley or teenager if you are wanting to control speed and data access etc. You may want to chat to your service advisor to see if they can unblock your profile. I personally would pay for a new black key and keep the red one as a spare. I like the idea of having a restricted key just in case you lend the car or valet park it.

[@willito6969]

is better to use only one key, imagine your wife or you lost the key haha

Ah but when I use my wife’s keys I am subjected to Lionel Ritchie as soon as I turn the car on!

How can you use two phones for the app at the same time, you can share the car with your wife? If I lock the car from my phone, can I unlock it from my wife's phone? How do I do this? Thank you! This is very important to me, can you help me?

[@JebRevsUp]

Dan you cannot share your Volvo on call account. However your wife can sign up for her own Volvo cars app, use a different email from the one you are using. Create a new profile for her in the car and then pair here Volvo cars app. Please see this video which walks you through - m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/j2bWXmelbrislck
