Ford Power-Up Version 4.2.3 is here

[Northofnine]

I received 4.2.2 on March 23, 2023. 2021 Premium.
Have not received anything else.
But the profiles and CarPlay have been stable.
So overall I am happy.

Update:
Just received 4.2.3 this morning.
assuming it downloaded/installed while driving home late last night.

I think my gremlins are still here. I noticed the other day the car 'donk donk''d me as I went through a school zone. It even said so on the screen. (I was on the car play screen but this popped over that and said "School Zone") twice now it's donk'd me while I'm picking up my kid as I'm leaving the school. No message about school zone, but I'm in one. CP has stopped playing music from time to time when listening to FM an getting a txt. It pops over to the CP screen. If it shows the text alert the music keeps playing. If it doesn't the music shuts off. I don't have noises for CP when this happens s I don't get a text ding. Not sure if that's what's angering the sync system or the text message alert getting lost somewhere.

I know I can create this race condition while backing out of my driveway as the phone goes from my home wifi to the cars for Car play and I get a text somewhere in the driveway.

Incredible. I wonder what is different about your car that allows you the pleasure of not having to press the "1" button on the door every other time you get in the car?

Yeah, that's a thing here. My wife drives the car most of the time, she's Driver 1 (I WFH mostly).

When I get in -- even if she's nowhere near the car -- it either uses her profile completely, or mine but sets the front seat in her position. Not all the time, but a lot of the time.

At least the bug is gone where occasionally I couldn't switch to my profile; it would remain on hers until...ah...maybe restarting the car, or maybe it was restarting Sync4. Progress!

Maybe I’ll get it this week, still don’t understand the method to the madness lol

Job 1 here also. I got 4.2.2 about a week ago and nothing since. Waiting for 4.2.3 and 4.2.4.

Mention something about CarPlay and podcasts. In the note they sent out to everyone although I can't tell if anything's been done in the updates that must be bug fixes, but they're always very vague about what they actually did. It seems like somebody from marketing writes these and tries to make it sound better than they ar etc. but it's nice that they are updating things and making some useful changes in the interface both my wife and I who drive the car or enjoying some of the easier ways you can do things like making the knob in the middle a adjustment tool instead of trying to fill it out with your finger adjusting heat seat controls or the fan etc.

Hi,
I received 4.2.3 last night. First drive tonight.
I feel the CarPlay kicks in faster. But will need more time to confirm.
I always have used wired connection to my iPhone, it avoids the Bluetooth delay on phone calls.

4.2.4 came today. Now I can send a nasty voicemail to Ford whenever I encounter a glitch.

(NOTE: I'm not likely to do that, unless it's something really horrendous)

Except, not a word in there about HOW one leaves them feedback. Nothing. Search the car menus, you won't find it. Makes it so hard to say that @Ford Motor Company is trying, when they can't even put in the update notes HOW to leave them the voice feedback...

Got 4.2.3 3/31. Late "22 build.

I must say profile issue has gotten better. Even if it is wrong I can now change it without rebooting Snyc.

sometimes on wife’s carplay but easy to switch back to mine, she always carry’s her FOB with her while I use PAAK especially if she drove it last, which is understandable. I have same issue with BMW.

carplay still has issues with Sirius presets , sometimes they are there and other times they are lost in space.

car is actually starting to behave like a normal car. Now if they would just swap out the POS HVBJB I have before it craps out.

seriously, i don’t understand why this is so complicated. we have a cheap chinese wireless carplay adapter in our mazda and it manages just fine.
