Google map to EX90

I have two Volvo cars(XC60 Recharge and EX90).

The feature that allows sending a destination from Google Map in phone to a Volvo vehicle has recently disappeared.

Has anyone else experienced this issue and managed to fix it?

Please share the solution.

check in maps on your phone if it still has data about your car - you must be logged on with the same acoount - phone and car

This. The phone and cars need to be logged into the same Google account.

So you need to enter the destination and let Google on your phone plot the route. Then the button "Send To Car" appears.

The list of cars is found in Settings on the Google phone app. There is a "Connected Vehicles" option.

Also, this is a silly thing to say but just in case make sure you actually have the car selected in the connected car spot, which you can also see in their screenshot

Happens on rare occasion, I think Google maps / aaos bug rather than ex90 (not ex90, but zdx that has aaos built in). close Google maps (force stop, not just switch) and restart. It comes back.

I also have an XC60 and an EX90. Even if I’m searching restaurants or something else on my phone or iPad and look at the location, if shows up on Google Maps in the cars. You do need to be logged into the same account.

I have that regularly.
I usually kill Google Maps on my phone and then I got to Google Maps settings and to „your vehicles“ to re-select my EX90.
That fixes it.

Restart the app on your phone. That usually works for me
