For the past week, every single time I start my truck via the app, my heated seats and steering wheel turn on.

The temps have been in the 70-80s, and I DO NOT want them on

I have made 100% sure that in the truck while driving it the settings are turned off. Then in the app, I make sure it shows they are off after starting the truck. I have even turned them on, then back off in the app. Yet when I get in my truck, the seats and steering are hot without fail

Is anyone else experiencing this?
Yeah, as I said in a post, it seems to toggle the last setting. If the seats are on when you shut the truck off, they will be off when scheduled starts. If they are on when the truck is shut down, the seats will be on when scheduled starts. It happens regardless of outside temperatures.

You can verify what I am seeing. When you next park the truck, turn on the heated seats before you shut off the truck. Then verify that the app turns the seats off, regardless of temp.

For me, it is not matching the last setting. They are just on. I have triple and quadruple checked they are set to off (it's been hot, have had zero use for them). Yet when I remote start the truck, they warm up anyway. Even though they show as off in the app (screenshot attached). I have even turned them on then back off in the app. The next time I remote start the truck, the seats heat up again.

I'm going to find time to go into the dealer this week to see if they can do anything. It's been super frustrating having the seats always turn on even when it's 80 degrees out.

I was hoping others had ran into this and knew of a way for me to fix without visiting the dealer*

No known way as of yet to fix it. It started with the latest update that added climate control to the app.
Try turning you seats on next time you park. They should be off when the app starts it the next time. This is not a fix, just confirms what I said earlier.
