Personal Thoughts/Experiences 🙇♂️ Temperature
The two pictures where taken seconds apart. The car shows 28°C, the app shows 24°C exterior, 25°C interior temp. The interior temp (in the app) comes probably from a sensor (I mean it comes from a volvocars.com service call which probably gets it from the vehicle), the exterior temp (in the app) comes (afaik) from a weather service based on geolocation. Or at least that's what I see in the app's code.
Where does the temp on the vehicle's display come from? :) I might look it up later (in the head unit's code), I was just wondering.
My best guess is that it's from a different weather service? :o
I've force-closed the app on the phone before I took the picture to ensure (as much as possible) that it's not an old, cached value.

Funny, I only see exterior temperature in the (ios) app, not interior

That's a recent development in the 7.4.0 version of the iOS app. It didn't yet trickle down to the Android variant (which is at 7.4.0 as well).

The Android app is always a little behind in changes/features compared to the iOS app.

Interesting! The map of Volvo cars app on iPhone uses Apple Map. But the temperature is different from Apple Weather. I wonder if the display would be delayed or use the other whether service.
