It was never made explicit in the first film that it was indeed set in the late 80s like the novel (only hinted upon by the music used). In this sequel, Renton and Sick Boy/Simon use apps that have only really existed as of 2016. Since the events of the first film are said to have happened 20 years ago, it means that both movies take place in the year they were made.
