Ecoboost and track apps?

[tcman54]

Sorry if this is an ignorant question...

While at the dealer today along with getting my oil changed I had the battery replaced, it had almost 40K miles on it and it was leaking / corroded severely at the terminal, anyways....

After getting in my car and starting it I noticed the track apps on my info screen and they appear to be highlighted, so...

Did I just not notice this before in my 2016 ecoboost and/or have they always worked or did replacing the battery somehow secretly, lol, activate them?

Can someone set me straight

thanks
TC

The feature was always a feature.

Are you using your usual key fob? I think you can set one key fob to the "My Key" setting, which doesn't allow Track Apps. Or maybe you had it on My Key before and replacing the battery reset the car so that it's back to the normal setting, which allows Track Apps... ?
