Pretty cool. I use Android but it's still nice to see you doing this, @Ford Motor Company.

One issue. When I tap your link I just see an empty article:

[UPDATE: link is working properly now]

The link works for me. Looks like you need the version of Sync that comes with 2.3.0 (or higher).

Cool. The link is working now for me, too. Must have posted here before they posted there, or something. ?

And here I was foolishly putting off updating my phone. I read it has a new emoji and I was like "meh", but this... this is news

And here's a little nugget in the FAQ about when they're targeting to get all cars up to at least 2.3.0:

You mean my Sync4 v4.0.20301 from December 14th, 2020 isn't the most recent? .

Cool - will this come to android auto as well?

Wondering if this is going to route me to a L2 charger for 4 hours or go 5 miles further to the EA DC fast chargers.

First we'd need Apple Maps to exist on our phones.

But yeah, Google Maps support would be nice.

Now I see it, needed to be in Chrome web browser.

All those on latest versions - feel free to tell us owners stuck on old updates how it works!

Thanks for the info @Ford Motor Company but ...

Google Maps has the capability for EV route planning and it is used in cars like the Polestar 2 for its route planning. Ford and Google both announced they were working together on future products. I'm hoping this means this feature will be coming to Android Auto soon.

I have both, but prefer Android Auto. Also... is there a way to get a full screen Android Auto feature?

Or like the NAV system takes you to a dealership only charger or residential neighborhood.

2021 Model Year Mustang Mach-E with updated SYNC software

?

Hey, my Sync Software version is "--" since November 2021 because your update PowerUp 1.7.1 screwed up my car.

When do you plan on releasing the fix that was promised last month to us and keeps behind pushed?
