2.3 official has been out for a while, I downloaded from the owner web site and installed it back in May.
I had the 2.2 and never saw 2.3 available for download until I realized what had happened. therefore it skipped on notifying me when the official 2.3 came out.

That's so weird.
My owner.ford.com site now says v2.3 where it used to say v2.2
I'll have to go see what my car says on my lunch break.
same here, used to be 2.2 now its magically 2.3.

Whats is the difference between the first 3.0 and the second 3.0?

I got the 17194, do I have to reapply?

Thanks
its only applicable to nav units, improved speech recognition, dont have to, wont feel the difference, not worth the time. but its for those who havent updated to 3.0

That's a very good point and I agree with you. However, for me 911 assist is not a big deal because:
  • After the crash if I can talk then I can always say "ok google call 911"
  • If I am not able to talk then 911 assist will NOT automatically provide the location of my car to the operator and there is no automatic way for them to know the location of the cell phone in the U.S. In the worst case they will probably send help to my house address.
911 knows your location because your phone is GPS enabled and tells them your location

Just installed 3.0. Seems to work good. I'm not a fan of the new bubblier icons.

Quick question. I have a Note 8 now, and it doesn't connect with Sync 2.2, 2.3 or 3.0. It just gives me an error message stating that USB device isn't compatible or something to that effect... Does anyone else have a Note 8 with this problem? My S7 edge synced up perfectly.

2.3 is an error on Ford's website... ignore it. It is an old 2.2 build someone mislabeled as 2.3. Sure it will be fixed in a few days.

For those of us that did the leaked v2.2 back in december, ford renamed them internally to 2.3. The official 2.3 update is available for download so use different vin if you like the changes.

What's included in this update?
HN1T-14G381-SA SYNC3 v2.3
This software release is the latest update in our continued efforts to improve system performance, device connectivity, and the overall SYNC experience.

This software contains the following enhancements:

Updated voice recognition engine.
Navigation user interface improvements (if equipped).
Android Auto™ for supported devices.
Apple CarPlay™ for supported devices. Owners of 2016 models with SYNC 3 are required to perform a software update and purchase a hardware upgrade through your dealer.

this mean ford owners will get this same file in a week or so.
That is weird. I don't remember updating my 2.0 now Ford owners website says mine is 2.3?
I need to go home and check.

I checked mine and it says it had 2.3 installed at the factory and was "updated" to 2.2 this past May. According to the car it had 2.0 from the factory.

I just installed the non-Nav version today and can't detect any functional differences from version 2.2. Maybe a few icons look different, but nothing of significance. What am I missing?
