We are on a long road trip (Arizona, Utah from Washington State), and I noticed this popping up on the Sync2/MFT:



Any idea what there little triangle means? Never saw it before and I couldn't find anything in the manual.

Thanks in advance!!!

Ken

Looks like your phone is in roaming mode.

Yep, Adgjqetuo is right on.

From the Ford IVTTeam:

"Hi, HPDSgtJDS -

I just wanted to confirm mac.mogul is spot-on! The triangle with the "R" inside indicates the paired phone is roaming.

Thanks, mac.mogul!

If anyone has additional questions, give me a shout.

Jaclyn"

Yeah, both AT&T and Verizon have agreements with other providers that share their technology where it is roaming, but won't cost you anything. So those usually don't show on your phone unless you dig into the settings menu.

Generally roaming only costs you money with the big providers if you are out of the country.

He should turn that F150 in at the nearest dealership and pick up a Prius or Volt instead.

Actually on this segment I was not in charge of the tunes. My Filipino wife and her two girlfriends were picking the music. This may not have been the worst selection .........
