So far it seems like an update in form over function. It may look a little slicker (debatable), but I no longer have the option to remote start the car, only to start the remote climate. Given that remote climate on a B5 simply blows in fresh air at the ambient outside temperature, this isn't worth a lot to me. In addition, there is no info regarding the air cleaning status and no option to clean the cabin air, which I had previously.

I hope the option to remote start the engine comes back, but I wouldn't be surprised if they are sneaking this feature away, as it probably not the most environmentally acceptable feature this year.

:wq

After when I pressed climate start app was asking me if i want to start engine too. When pressed yes then engine has been started.

Today in the morning i tried again and app refuse to start engine.

Also when you press and hold on Volvo Cars icon it will pop up window that will allowed you to choose remote start.
