Still no joy with the submenus/pages in FordPass with the new iOS 18 beta today. Just finished the update and it was the first thing I checked. :(

Maybe just keep a single running thread for anything related to iOS 18?
Don't need a new thread for each beta release to say that it's still not working.

Frankly, I think you're a little nuts for even attempting to run a beta Apple OS on your primary device. FordPass is pretty fragile as it is, so I'll just stick with the officially supported OS and pray that it works for the things I need it to do.

It works a little better and a little worse. Now the pages under energy work and the ones under vehicle don’t. It was the other way around for me.

I think you’re a little nuts yourself. How do you expect new software to get fully tested?

You should appreciate people willing to live on the bleeding edge. Many of these people file bug reports, which makes the software work better for all of us.

Thanks to those testing iOS 18 you have kept me from moving from iOS 17. I am in the public beta program using iOS 17.6 (21G80) right now with no issues with FordPass App v5.3.1
Keep on testing everyone you make the world a better place!

Yeah on the "Testflight" page for FordPass Beta updates, the most recent release calls out compatibility issues with iOS 18 as well. I suspect a lot of it will have to come from an update with Ford, not the iOS betas.

I have been watching for new TestFlight versions from Ford, but they haven't done a new one in about a week. Hopefully they are just busy getting the next FP version with iOS 18 compatibility out.

Ford has about a month to fix iOS 18 problems before it is released to everyone. Get crackin’….

iOS 18 Beta 6 fixed most of the FordPass issues.

I have now been using the FordPass app 5.3.1 with iOS 18.0 (22A5338b) beta for over a week with no noticeable issues.

It appears that Ford and/or Apple software teams have been indeed been crackin'

Yes! It appears that this was an Apple problem solved in the betas (18 & 18.1) released this week. I am happy again now that I can access my charging history. Life is good again...
