How to Use Ford SYNC®3 on Your Vehicle

September 10th, 2021 by

Ford’s SYNC®3 technology offers the ability to make hands-free calls, get directions on the go, play music and more from your phone, stay connected to Wi-Fi as well as start, stop, lock, and unlock your vehicle from just about anywhere. Some newly added features to SYNC®3 make for a more seamless and streamlined drive.

Home Screen Made Easy

An easy-to-read colorful home screen conveniently displays the phone and audio features as well as a new available navigation screen with a convenient swipe and pinch feature similar to your smartphone. A redesigned feature bar now appears at the bottom of the touchscreen for a straightforward user experience. If the feature menu bar retracts below the touchscreen, you can simply touch the controls button on the bottom left side of the screen.

Voice Commands

Also new to SYNC®3 is simplified voice commands that make controlling certain features quick and easy without having to go through multiple steps. For example, if you’re listening to the radio and want to change to listening to your media device, all you have to do is use the voice button and say, “Play Song ______.” Use it to set the temperature, call, text and more.

Simplified Navigation

Using the navigation system is also easier to use. So, finding the nearest gas station, favorite coffee shop, ATM or any other popular destination can now be done quickly thanks to condensed entry functionality. Plus, SYNC®3 remembers what you searched, like “coffee shops”, and saves it in its memory. So, the next time you search a coffee shop, it’ll remember and preload the POI search results based on the letters you type and show you the closest one.

Stay Connected

Another convenient feature you get is automatic updates via Wi-Fi. Now you can easily update your SYNC software when a new version is available. Also new is AppLink, which gives you convenient control of your apps without having to reach for your phone. And finally, iPhone users now have Siri Eyes Free with SYNC®3 so you can use Siri without looking at your phone.
