For folks whining about MLB on AA, my I offer up the sad, pathetic unusable SiriusXM app on CarPlay. The thing is pretty much unusable.

I’d prefer Ford focus (get it ?) on more practical functions, like a remote frunk release ????
Every single Mustang Mach E has a frunk. How many people are using Android Auto ?
Ha, no kidding. I just got back from the dealership (my MME came in after an 11 month wait). One thing we (me and the dealership guys) figured out is you can't open the frunk from outside the car. That's very disappointing (though I was aware of this, I was hoping it might be different on a 2022). I like to back into parking spaces. Would have been nice to come out of the grocery store, wave my foot under the front of the car and drop in my bags.

Anyway, I AM excited about finally have a vehicle with Android Auto so the OP is still good news.

MLB doesn't work through Android Auto anymore? That's a shame, they were one of the launch partners way back when.
Man I am frustrated that I can’t get MLB on my AA as well!

Theoretically, you CAN open the frunk from outside the car by using the keypad on the driver’s door. I have no idea how, or if it works though because @Ford Motor Company doesn’t think I’m worthy of a remote-opening frunk ?

7-8 opens the frunk.

All 2021 Job2 cars and newer can remote-open their frunks. I could use the keypad without issue to open the frunk the day I got my car in November. I could not use the FP app due to a bug that didn’t like my email address. That is fixed now. In order to use the FP app to do this, you must have PaaK set up and be signed into the account associated with the email address you created the PaaK for. ??

Is PAAK required to use the keypad. I have tried several time to get the keypad code to work to open the frunk....just simply doesn't on my Job 1 (June 21).

It is not. I didn’t have a PaaK set up the first time I opened the frunk with the key pad. ?‍♂??

Not for all of us. I have tried several times to get it to work, and it doesn't.
Was the car unlocked when you tried? You may need to enter your pin first (which unlocks the car) and then press the 7-8 button.

Yah this did not work for me and I have PaaK set up on my S22+. Maybe the Android stuff is still half baked (because the world still thinks the only phone out there is an iPhone :rolleyes:)

The keypad has nothing to do with PaaK or your phone. All you should need to do is enter your 5 digit door code then immediately hit the 7-8 button on the keypad if you have a 2021 Job2 car or newer. It currently does not work on 2021 Job1 cars. ??

The keypad only works if electronic frunk opening has been enabled from what I understand now. Job 1 cars do not have that ability....yet.

That is correct. Last sentence of my post said that it does not currently work on 2021 Job1 cars. It does work on 2022 Job1 cars. ??
