Just received this update today.
I'm not seeing any way of opening any door with my phone as of now.
Anybody else received that update?

I installed the update yesterday and Fordpass (latest version) on iOS still has the buttons to open/lock the doors.

You mean that if I’m close to the car, and still haven’t pressed on the open button for my door, the passenger can open theirs?

The update is rather poorly worded. Before this update the vehicle would attempt to localize you in individual zones such as driver door, passenger door, and lift gate. After the update, the zones are all merged into one exterior zone. So the update should improve vehicle access and eliminate some errors. There is no new button in fordpass.

I received this update yesterday. Works well, but the walk away lock feature seems to be disabled by it (or just coincidence). Yes, I did double check the settings and the update did not change those.
Anybody else notice this?

My wife had to install FP/PAAK to get this ability (like when she got to the car before me and it's raining), I guess now she wouldn't need it but she might as well keep it.

This is a concern when walking up to your car in a dark parking lot. Someone lurking around can now enter your car from the other doors???

i Can lock and unlock my doors and this functionality has been there on Fordpass for a while. To open the door I still have to push the button on the respective doors. Does the IOS version allow you to open the doors without pushing the button?

I’ve had the update for awhile and haven’t had any issues with wall away lock. Switch it off then back on after a bit and see if that helps.

Sort of. Previously you were just as likely to be kept waiting at your door pushing the button as the car had guessed incorrectly which door you were going to. Now there’s a far greater probability that you’ll get in quickly.

I was thinking the same thing. I’m a fob user, and have it set to open only the driver’s door. I don’t have this update yet, but my husband’s car just received it last night.

In my Mach E, I am also seeing rapid response on initial opening of any door. I'm also finding that the liftgate opening is extremely reliable now. No more having to "Do the Hokey Pokey" to get it to sense my foot. Perhaps the biggest issue was with detecting the PaaK phone rather than the kick technique?

Of course, there is still no response if the phone is in too deep a slumber, so sometimes I still have to tap the face of the phone for PaaK to operate.

Also, I am no longer getting the dee-doo-dee-doo-dee-doo tone when the liftgate completes its opening.

Best of all, the welcome lights come on more reliably when I approach and I am much more regularly seeing my pony lights come out to play!
