Default Blinking Circle on Nav

Does anyone know how to stop or remove the blinking circle?

I am running latest version of Ford MySync with no issues and latest updates to maps

Thanks

Doesn't that represent your vehicle location?

The blinking circle is around the arrow. The arrow is my position.

Yes but as I recall, does the circle only blink when you are in an active track to a location? I don't think this is something you can deactivate.

Unfortunately it blinks all the time.

I noticed in my fathers 2017 F150, the circle was removed.

Yep that is correct, just checked my 13 and it is there. Only thing I can think of it is there for dragging and dropping the arrow.

So now that I have pointed it out, it will always be bothering you.
