I wonder if your 2016 vehicle also has the updated USB hardware that we are hearing CarPlay will need...
My Platinum is a month old and my map version is 2012. I never realized how much roads can change but, sure enough, there are several roads I use that didn't exist 4 years ago.

Android Auto is what I'm really looking forward to having.

Syclone Rob,

Really curious if Apple Car Play works with your new version of software... would tell us if your 2016 has the new hardware update also. And, if so, may be the hardware update was put in all 2016's after a certain manufacture date...

I am sure Ford will give us all these answers by some time in 2017... but if we can figure it out sooner, all the better!

And share some screen shots of the Android Auto interface (or at least the menu option to enable/disable it), please.

Interesting, just tried to update mine & it won't download anything...
Checked the "owner.ford.com" site and it says I'm up to date...
OBVIOUSLY I'M NOT.
