Default Remote Access will be useless

I got a notification on my iPhone today that remote access will not work with the next iOS update. Well that was $300 down the drain

Anyone else get this?

It's been covered already. The app will be getting an update.

My (older) salesman spent about 30 minutes yesterday when picking up my truck trying to get my phone's FordPass app to unlock the doors. No go. The button would not appear on the phone. Finally, he went and got another (younger) salesman who promptly asked "did you get Sync Connect?" The light bulb went on. "No, I didn't."

FordPass is for 2017. Remote Access is prior years. Two different things.

FordPass takes 24 hours to activate when you first sign up.

The title of the thread is "Remote Access" will be useless.

The OP posted about Remote Access.

You jumped in with a comment about FordPass, so I clarified that they are totally different.
