Default Sync 3 Android Auto App

I tried to do a search but I couldnt get the search to work on my phone...

I did not get Nav. when I ordered my truck due to the Android Auto App, but the dealer did not know when it would be available.

The truck is due in next week and I was wonderin if the app is out yet.

If so an you have it, does it work well?

Thanks!

Hi Pikkup,

Steve715 and jm061 are both correct. Android Auto will be released in an update later this year: media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2016/01/04/sync-apple-carplay-android-auto.html

Side note, Ford Destinations app crashes every time I start the truck (sync3 + Android)

If only I could send addresses from phone to car, I'd be set. Was shocked they removed the "services" sync vocal command, so now everything has to be manually entered

A better version of the Ford Owner app and what you use if you have Ford Connect.

Don's see this in the Android store. Just the useless Ford Owner app.

I will be looking forward to it.

Is it installed as a download or does the dash have to be taken apart?
