Can you imagine any car company producing a product that results in the string of comments in this thread? What a joke.
well..... these comments are all about SOFTWARE, which car companies are still trying to figure out. ;)

Seems like some here are a few revisions behind. Ford needs to catch everyone up.

No need to imagine when reality is capable of making such mistakes.

Since we don't really get any 'release notes' from Ford with any details, I'm thinking it might help the group to post our own..... anecdotal posts on what you happen to notice is Enhancements, Broken, or Requested

These version numbers are the only numbers I can find on-screen easily... in the General Settings->About Sync4 and Settings->System Update

I'll kick it off with a couple things I noticed, and ya'll can add to the list.... Perhaps Ford developers will chime in.

===== Enhancements/Changes =====
- addition of a couple games: Blocks, Tiles, and an on-screen notes app 'Sketch'
- speed sign recognition has been added as a separate feature under Driver Assistance

===== Broken/Unexpected =====
- Settings->System Update version number shows 2.1.0

- several settings that I would like to turn OFF don't stay OFF
- Settings->Driver Assistance -> automatic emergency braking​
- Settings->Driver Assistance -> cross traffic alert​

===== Requested =====
- alternate/enhanced instrument display to show :
- HV battery kWhr remaining instead of %​
- addition of dial or bar showing instantaneous kW power -Output or +Regen​
- ability to display one, or a scrolling list of selected Sensor readings.... i.e. inverter temp, motor temp, battery temp, LVB voltage​
On morning start, speed sign recognition defaults to off. When switched to on it stays on during the day then the next day it goes back to off. This did not occur before this update.

But isn’t it kind of exciting to always have something new to look forward to whenever you turn on your car (or in my case, when you *attempt* to turn on your car)?

interesting!
can anyone else verify that speed sign recognition won't stick 'on' ?

I'll give this a try out of curiosity.... I didn't notice because I want this to stick OFF. ;) I would like, and expect, all settings to stick where you set them.
