With AppLink, you can control compatible smartphone apps using SYNC 3 voice commands
Here’s how
First: Make sure the ignition’s switched on…
... the car in is neutral, and the handbrake’s on
Then:
- Make sure Bluetooth® is on
- Your smartphone is paired and connected
- Any apps you want to access are downloaded onto the device
TOP TIP
You can connect your phone via Bluetooth®
However, some devices will require a USB connection
Select the app you want on the touchscreen
You’ll be asked if you want to enable mobile apps and accept the data usage. Charges may apply
Press ‘Yes’ and your app will open
You can also select an app by pressing ‘Voice Control’ and saying the name of the app. For example, “Ford Pass”.
Once connected, use voice commands to control the app’s features.
To stop your app, just press ‘Voice Control’ again and say, “Close Ford Pass”.
TOP TIP
If SYNC 3 doesn’t recognise an app, try closing and restarting the application
With most phones, apps should appear once restarted.
For Android, press ‘Connect Mobile Apps’, or use the voice command ‘Find applications’.
