I am in the UK and still no sign of 1.5. Although from what I have seen I don't really know if I'm actually waiting, as I haven't seen much signs of any real improvements over 1.4.2

In Uk and still waiting, car arrived with 1.4.3 installed, maybe later VINs wait longer?

Yes that's the problem when you leave the EU! :-)

The only improvement I’ve noticed is a very small snowflake icon beside the battery% when it’s below 0C and the heater seems to work slightly better, but that wasn’t even mentioned in the update notes and might be my imagination.

Something that is worse is that you can no longer open the boot from the screen without an extra button press.

Unless the snowflake is important to you, I wouldn’t bother.

If you don't want it is it possible to tell it that, or will it constantly nag you everytime you get in it?

From Reddit:

“Version 1.5 in Australia:

For anyone in Australia waiting, below is an email response I received about 1.5 in Australia

“Regarding software update version 1.5 for your Volvo EX30, currently this latest OTA (Over The Air) update is not available for the Australian market, but rest assured, the relevant teams are working diligently to release the OTA update as soon as it becomes available.

Please note, all software updates including version 1.5 are available for installation from the release date at your nearest Volvo retailer or an authorised Volvo workshop. Keep in mind, that you may be charged for the installation unless it’s included in a repair or service agreement.”

I wonder if there’s any particular regulations or hurdles that have caused the delay.”

Would that also apply to you British? 🤔

Maybe it is something to do with being RHD cars? So no OTA 1.5 so far for the UK and Australia. I wonder if it has been released in NZ or Japan? Can't think of any other RHD markets at the moment...

RHD wouldn't explain why it can be loaded by a dealer but not OTA. It is either RHD compliant or not.
