I’ve noticed over the last month or two that the tyre pressure status isn’t appearing correctly in the Volvo app.
Everything is showing a tick, but the tyre pressure is showing as status unknown.

The tyre pressure status in the car itself is showing as all green so I’m not overly bothered about it, but as the app has just updated and I’ve tried multiple resets of the pressure in the car, I was just wondering if anyone else has come across this?

Yes, same here. Bug seems to have been introduced a couple of (iPhone) app updates ago…

I have an iPhone, so looks like a bug.

Latest app version 5.26.0 was made available on April 21. Tire pressure is ticked green on my iPhone.

I’ll try a recalibration. I know the tyres are good and at correct pressures…

On your iPhone delete the app and reinstall it from the App Store, then log back in. It might fix the issue.

It’s showing the same status on my iPhone and two iPads. Tried reinstalling on the iPhone anyway but didn’t make any difference 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’m beginning to wonder if the data in the app for the tyres is gathered from sensors in the car or if it’s from last service record. Surely the sensors can only detect pressure problems, not tread depth? Last time it was serviced and mot’d both the service report and mot certificate mentioned tread depth on the front tyres was only just within limits. Fitted two new tyres a few months ago…

I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling with no effect. Interestingly I also get the same on iPhone and iPad.
I was wondering if it was a case of something in the cache that is preventing the car from updating but the delete/reinstall should have cleared that.

I’ve emailed Volvo out of interest so let’s see what they say, other than delete /reinstall of course 😀

I have the same on my Samsung Galaxy s10. I thought perhaps the service I have just had would clear it but it hasn't.
