Yesss!!! Iāve turned off Ford Assistant completely. Good riddance!Much faster and responsive than Ford assistant
Yeah, sadly fasterYesss!!! Iāve turned off Ford Assistant completely. Good riddance!
I find it faster than Siri as wellā¦ how was your experience?
yeah, you are right. I tried again yesterday, just a little further up the road, and got my joke instantly! She can also turn my A/C off quickly, although the new control also works. But somehow A/C goes back on by itself at some point.Had you JUST driven down the street? The comms path might have still been in the process of changing from WiFi to cellular. I'm not subscribed, and I asked her what wines pair with pizza last night on the way back from Pizza Hut. She not only told me, she even put up a picture of pizza (in case I didn't know what one looked like, I guess).
Donāt the Ford voice commands already do this.Anyone have a list of vehicle commands that Alexa built-in can control?
So far I've found:
Change the temperature to X
Set fan speed to X (Goes by number on the vertical scroll when you press fan)
Turn off A/C turns off the A/C
Turn on/off Air Recirculation ( have to say recirculation not recirc)
Switch to Radio station
Switch to XM station? (I sort of got this working but not sure of phrasing)
There's probably some overlap here, but Alex is WAYYYY more responsive than Ford Assistant. Also feel like this is paving the way for Ford Assistant to be deprecated.Donāt the Ford voice commands already do this.
Fords Nav isnāt always the best, wish it would go to google Nav or Apple Nav but I know that wonāt happenYou can use Alexa to bring up a navigation route in the Ford nav app. I found the Ford voice assistant to be useless in that regard when I wanted directions to REI. Alexa nailed it first try.
I generally use Google Maps on Android Auto for navigating, but it's nice to know the capability is there with Alexa.
For some reason I've only typed directions in on the screen on CarPlayFords Nav isnāt always the best, wish it would go to google Nav or Apple Nav but I know that wonāt happen
I long press speaker button and use Apple map thru car play.
