FordPass uses motion data

this is interesting:

I wonder if this is specifically for "please confirm you're not driving right now".

I think so. I get that message on FordPass often and I am not in the car. I guess I am a fast mover.

It needs that data as part of tracking your journeys. Kinda annoying really, its idea of aggressive cornering is nowhere near mine. ?

Yeah it does I think primarily to sense motion

Correct, when I've been a passenger in my F-150 and I open Fordpass it asks me to make sure I am not driving.

I have not yet activated Journeys ... not sure if I should be sending all that data to Ford ... may be will only turn it on manually on case by case basis

It’s pretty useless currently, doesn’t provide info about energy consumption. I thought I’d give it a try but at this point don’t see the value in it.
