It's probably an electric that has to warm up the battery before going anywhere in extreme cold, though 20 minutes seems short.
When I use a block heater, I let it run for a couple hours before needing the vehicle in the cold. I've got an outdoor outlet timer that I can use to start my truck's block heater around 2-3AM if I need it for something in the morning. It'll start at 0F without it, but it's exceedingly clear that it's not happy about the arrangement, so I preheat.
Whatever it is, I'm entirely unsurprised that some app or another, talking to some cloud service or another, talking to some car or another, fails silently when "impossible" things have happened. Nobody seems to consider that the cloud can fail. Even though it does, quite regularly, and reliably breaks all sorts of stuff every single time it does.
