Hi Guys,
The only reason why i waited for the 2016 model was to get the Sync 3....
So far it has been awesome !!
I do have one question i could not find an answer to...
Have Ford ever said when Sync 3 will get support for Apple Carplay and Android Auto?

So far all i could find is that "it will support it" but nothing more then that...
Does anyone have a better source of information?

I care about infotainment
Ford hasn't given a timetable unfortunately. My guess is early next year. I don't think they're on a rush to roll it out like other automakers.

There's no guarantee either. Fortunately the applink stuff works real nice, and honestly I am very impressed with the factory nav in sync 3. The whole system is how sync2 should have been honestly.

i did some navigation routes with both google maps on my phone running and the car nav....
i found that the car telenav decided to take some "retarded" routes....
i tried on all 3 route settings, each time in certain routes for an example while i was on the tollway the car telenav kept wanting me to get off the tollway and take weird routes.. and it didnt matter which route setting i had ...
google maps worked much better IMO...

Turn off all the fancy routing settings like traffic and highway preferences, it gets better. But mainly I was talking about the look, feel, and performance of it.

Hi m.a.s.e,

I can't speculate on future technology, but we are working with Apple and Android on implementation of both CarPlay and Android Auto. It's best to stay tuned to our Media site for announcements: Media.Ford.com
