Try a reset as per below. That should fix it?

To restart the centre display, press and hold the Home button below the display for 20 seconds. The screen will first go into cleaning mode. Continue to hold the button until the display turns off and then restarts showing the Volvo logo.

This is a fairly common problem with the Google AAOS XC40s. I have had to reset mine several times.

Glad it is sorted.

This seems to be a common problem. When it occured on my car I found it quite scary. I used the same reset procedure as described by poleposition.

Same problem. After visit to Volvo dealer they explain the same solution: press the main button for 30 seconds until restart. Problem solved.

For the record; I've read and experienced that you may have to follow this reset procedure "several" times consecutively to resolve the issue. 4 has been the limit for me.
And of course for internet issues you'll also need to do a Modem Reset after the above by holding down the Front Screen Heater button for 20 secs or until the SoS button starts Flashing.

Same here in US. I have a 2024 xc40. Has anyone addressed this as a safety issue? Reboot is the answer for a lot of software glitches on PC's but if I'm driving and the system fails my collision detection and other driver safety functions go away.

If the system had ever failed while driving, I'm sure somebody would have addressed it as a safety issue. If it's never happened, I would say probably not...
