FordPass. Journeys made easier for Android
Still buggy cannot get live traffic to load any traffic despite the unit saying it is connected to live traffic. Also there is no live traffic toggle switch on the app itself as shown in your helpful setup guide on YouTube. Apart from this annoying bug the app shows promise
UPDATE 8/11 after an update my VIN was finally recognised (and no, as a maths teacher I didn't mix up 0 with O!). So now to see what use it actually is. Nice to earn a ringtone PERK but it would be better if you could download it straight onto the phone ... too much time and effort to have to download to PC then connect phone!
The moment you try login without having signal, you get logged out. I don't really get the point of the app, other than for Ford to monitor how you drive so they can use it against you at the end of the PCP (a ford manager told me "off the record".
I'm not able to start the app on my OnePlus 3T with Android 7.1.1. When I try to open the app the "Select Language" screen pops up again and again and again. I'm not able to select anything as it opens this page multiple times a second. Please help, I'd like to use this app.
App just crashes - repeatedly!! Tried to sync it to my car, the moment my car 'finds it' the app crashes - we have tried many times... always the same result! ????
Sync 3 occasionally finds Glympse and Accuweather on connection to the phone via Bluetooth, but it NEVER finds FordPass. I have to manually open the app on my phone, and then go to the apps screen on Sync 3 and 'Search for apps' so it will connect and display traffic. If I have the Android Auto toggle turned ON it won't let Fordpass update local traffic. Such a frustrating app and set of rules making it impractical and pointless.
Doesn't work at all even after the update today and I've tried everything
I hope Ford realise that there are fake apps requesting that you download this app. Assumably Ford are paying for this. Not really the ethic Ford would want to portray. Its a disgusting practice.
Was für ein Murks! Erst muss man sich registrieren um dann festzustellen, dass das Bike Sharing ein weiteres Registrieren erfordert.
Wie kann ich diese Bike Widerrufen? Es kann nicht sein das ein Ausleihen von einem Fahrrad und einem zweiten so etwas von Kompliziert ist. 30min mit dem Support telefoniert mit dem Resultat - keine Lösung. Man Registriert sich, um dann anschließend festzustellen das, dass vor 1min festgestellte Passwort nicht funktioniert. Höchst Entwicklungswürdig... nächste Sorge wie Widerrufe ich das ganze wieder. :(
It's rubbish. Where's all the remote control stuff? Locking/Unlocking car. Remote start? Putting heaters on? Finding car in busy carpark? Tracking location of car? Thought we were in 21st century...
App doesn't recognise my VIN number. Then there's no help option in case this happens. Nothing when i do a Google search. Not very helpful.
Took me 10min to sign up to find out the expensive rates for bike.
Neither chat and none contact available with some assistent (all closed). How to improve the Ford vehicles without any customer s feed back?
Well done ford you will get there like audi with start the car etc heaters and such like
When is all the remote stuff coming to Europe
I have tried to connect FordPass app to my Sync 3 using my New Samsung S8 Android Phone via Bluetooth. Mainly to get the live Traffic updates to show on the (all be it out of date) maps and it just won’t work. Sync 3 just does not find the app; the phone is paired fine the app is installed and up to date. In settings Android Auto is off, Mobile apps is On, I search for apps but none are found. I have powered the phone off and on again, turned Bluetooth off and on again, I have toggled all the switched in settings on and off again I have even re-paired the phone, nothing works. Short of a full factory reset of Sync 3 I have tried everything. I am really frustrated now WHY is it so difficult?
Why don't we have the features of the previous Ford app? I liked the feature which showed the various road signs for foreign countries and the speed limit comparisons between mph / kph. Any chance of getting these useful features put back into this new app please?
Love it
Useless. Doesnt work. Cant get live traffic on my sync 3 system. Guide tells me to take to dealer to check for updates. Already did that. Waste of time
You need to let someone copy and paste in the password field. Stupid if you use a strong password generator. Also change your password length to be longer.
Uk version
It has worked a few times. At the moment it does not read the car mileage.sometimes I go into the app and delete the cache and data then re enter it all it works but not now. Several times a week I had to register everything again as it forgets. Phonecalls and texts are fine but everything else seems to be a waste of time.
Worked fine on my new phone for 3 weeks and after latest update has stopped completely and caused Sync to forget all other apps. Since I deleted it everything is now working fine. Needs a serious overhaul.
It looks like it would be usefull app to use
Hope it is as good as it looks. Time will tell.
Works very well. Less than 5 minutes to set everything up and complete all registrations. Linked to sync system without any problems. Only issue is that android auto has to be turned off for this app to work in car. If the two could work side by side, I'd give 5 stars.
Hobbled for the UK Market. Like so many things, this app is so much more useful in its US configuration - none of the really useful functions (checking fuel, security status etc remotely) works in the UK/EU.
5 months on from original download and its still totally unusable. Unbelievable.
Doesn't connect. Unable to show fuel data. Appears fairly pointless app. Guess it's just to advertise their cars
Asks me for my address and then hits me with an error message. Can't believe such a brand name would put out this rubbish!
What is it for, why should i use it and why does it forget me all the time
Pointless app, don't bother.
Stuck on the log in page
Is this a beta?
Does not connect all the time and if it does the app does not show real time info (fuel). Live traffic does not work either. I have sync 3 & new smartphone. I contacted Ford & they said they would look into this and get back to me which they have not. I have seen clips about fordpass app but does not work for me. My Fordpass app is up to date. Not the best app. Does ford look at the reviews ?. If they did they have not responded unlike other companies when there are problems with there apps they try and have a fix ready.????.
doesnt work, what mote can i say. typical ford, launch something and then dont support it. same as the cars.
Everytime I click on 'my vehicles' it goes to the address page. What's the point in that?!?
Doesn't save any of the information
