Reviews

What Volvo owners say about VDD.

Authentic owner feedback from VDD users.

★★★★★

The VDD dongle is exactly what you need for your Volvo. I have it in both of my Volvos — an XC70 2009 and a V50 2006. The best part is live real-time diagnostics. It saves you a trip to the service shop.

I’m very satisfied with VDD and the app functions. Remote start and opening the windows and sunroof are great — ventilating the V90 after summer sun or closing everything before rain.

Chris Volvo V90 · June 2023
★★★★★

The range of configuration and service options with D5T5 is practically unlimited. Didn’t the car come with factory equipment? Install the parts and use the software to tell the car it has them. They keep innovating.

With every version the app gets smarter and can do more. Comfortable remote control of the car — start the heater, diagnostics, current status. An incredible helper; thanks to the developers for great work.

I use the app daily and I’m satisfied. Add an Apple Watch app as well and it will be perfect. 😊
