Problems with "My Journeys"?

[MTNestr]

I have the same issue - it almost never records the last segment.

Also - sometimes the journey starts recording a few miles into the segment even when connected to CarPlay.

My Journeys is working fine for me now -- even a drive of a few blocks! It was updated in the recent PowerUps. If My Journeys isn't working for you, make sure your car is on 1.6.

Ford Pass has been very randomly saving "journeys". For some reason they are never more than a couple miles even if my actual trip was 50+ miles. Any idea what the issue is?

It worked for a couple of weeks for me, but like all things Fordpass I have given up on it. I'm not sure time wise if it was before I reinstalled Fordpass with the assistance of the Ford 800 number or after, but I suspect I only enabled it after the reinstall.

Just checked. I have 1.6 and it says it’s up-to-date. Then why am I at 1.6 and you’re at 1.16?

Because I made a typo. I meant 1.6.

Thanks - I feel better that I’m not too far behind. I did see that some are currently getting a new update. 1.7.1

It's pretty useless. Last week, it shows me driving from Waterloo, NY to Ripley, NY. It shows a path that is pretty accurate. It then also shows me traveling from Waterloo to Erie, PA, in a straight line, at the same time.

I drove from Waterloo to Erie, not Ripley. And I stayed on the highway...

For the first trip, it gives me 28 insights... 28.

Mine went from bad to worse. On a 20 mile trip it recorded only about 1/4 mile of it thru my neighbors yards. It was not a straight line but a jig jag path.

Journeys were very accurate back when they recorded everywhere I took my iPhone. I wish they would return to those good old days.

Journey's usually works okay for me. I use Wireless Carplay all the time, without issue as well.

I have noticed that Journey's usually messes up on my commute when I go past the 2 locations that cause interference with Wireless Carplay (there's two spots on my commute that cause Carplay to hiccup/stutter both audio and video/gps on the screen, I think there's some sort of wireless interference in those two spots).

I still don't really see much benefit in Journeys though. If it'd give consumption info or something it'd be much more useful in my opinion.

GoogleMaps timeline is pretty accurate.

I discovered that when I get into the car I have to manually turn the Ford Pass App on in the center screen and it takes it a while to even come up on that screen. When I manually turn it on, I get recorded journeys. If I do not manually turn it on I don't get journeys. I think this is the part where CarPlay interferes with it. Seems pretty dumb to me.

1.6 here and who knows that may work? Never tried that. Maybe something to do with your location also? I am more concerned with carplay and my tunes booting up I guess.

I have never got a journey and like charging logs that just started to work lately I do not really care so have not fought to make it work. Paak, soc and charging status is all I really use. The basics and all are starting to work a bit better. You could throw the rest of them out (or hide them in pull downs) and I may not notice. I journey with a better app when carplay is around and can set charging schedules in the car. Can you add a dealer to your contacts? I can write it down on a whiteboard maybe some day and save it. Groceries 90 Km ............. saving . Keeping it simple?.

You’re right about GoogleMaps but Journeys shows the route you took.. GoogleMaps draws straight lines between waypoints and doesn’t follow the road.

Not my experience. First map is my drive from the Waterloo, NY EA to the Erie, PA EA from GoogleMaps. Third is Journey's "dotted line" mapping. Fourth is Journey's other mapping. As a result of these duplicates, Journeys says I drove 2,561 miles last week instead of just under 2,000 (2nd photo)

My GoogleMaps Timeline looks good like yours until you blow it up and then you see what I’m talking about. In the attached I was driving on I-75 the entire trip but GoogleMap shows me in farmer’s fields.

Mine is exactly on the road the entire way.
