SYNC Mobile Apps
The system enables voice and steering
wheel control of SYNC AppLink enabled
smartphone apps. Once an app is running
through AppLink, you can control main
features of the app through voice
commands and steering wheel controls.
Note:
You must pair and connect your
smartphone to SYNC to access AppLink.
Note:
iPhone users need to connect the
phone to the USB port.
Note:
Android users need to connect the
phone to SYNC using Bluetooth.
Note:
For information on available apps,
supported smartphone devices and
troubleshooting tips please visit the Ford
website.
Note:
Make sure you have an active account
for the app that you have downloaded.
Some apps work automatically with no
setup. Other apps want you to configure
your personal settings and personalize your
experience by creating stations or favorites.
We recommend you do this at home or
outside of your vehicle.
Note:
AppLink is not available if your
vehicle is equipped with the MyFordTouch
system.
