SYNC Mobile App Voice Commands
The following voice commands are always
available:
•
"Mobile apps": SYNC prompts you to
say the name of an app to start it on
SYNC.
• "List mobile apps": SYNC lists all of the
currently available mobile apps.
• "Find new apps": searches your
connected mobile device for
SYNC-compatible mobile apps.
• "<the name of an app>": At any time
you can say the name of a mobile app
to start the mobile app on SYNC.
• "<the name of an app> help": SYNC
lists the available voice commands for
the specified app if the app is running
on SYNC.
App Permissions
App permissions are organized by groups.
You can grant these group permissions
individually. You can change a permission
group status any time when not driving, by
using the settings menu.
When you launch an app using SYNC, the
system may ask you to grant certain
permissions, for example:
•
To allow your vehicle to provide vehicle
information to the app such as, but not
limited to: Fuel level, fuel economy, fuel
consumption, engine speed, rain
sensor, odometer, VIN, external
temperature, gear position, tire
pressure, and head lamp status.
• To allow your vehicle to provide driving
characteristic information such as, but
not limited to: MyKey, seat belt status,
engine revolutions per minute, gear
position, braking events, steering wheel
angle, and accelerator pedal position.
• To allow your vehicle to provide
location information, including: GPS
and speed.
• To allow the app to send push
notifications using the vehicle display
and voice capabilities while running in
a background state. Push notifications
may be particularly useful for news or
location based apps.
Note: You only need to grant permissions
the first time you use an app with SYNC.
Note: Ford is not responsible or liable for
any damages or loss of privacy relating to
usage of an app, or dissemination of any
vehicle data that you approve Ford to
provide to an app.
