CarPlay, available for owners of the Apple iPhone 5 or later, mimics the iPhone’s touchscreen on the vehicle’s touchscreen interface. CarPlay also allows for better integration between the phone’s apps and the vehicle, letting Ford owners use Siri voice controls, Apple Maps, Apple Music, iPhone and Messenger, along with several of their favorite third-party apps. Full use of Apple CarPlay will require a hardware update installed at a local dealership.

If you’re an Android user, Android Auto gives you similar integration between your Ford and Android 5.0 or higher device. This means drivers will be able to use, among other things, Google Maps, music and voice controls for phone and messaging.

Updating your SYNC 3 system is easy. This “over-the air” update will happen automatically when your vehicle is connected to a Wi-Fi network. No driver interaction is required, and your vehicle doesn’t even have to be running. If you do not currently have over-the-air updates enabled on your Ford, your owner’s manual will have detailed instructions on how to do so.

Alternatively, Ford owners who do not wish to enable over-the-air updates can get the latest SYNC 3 versions via a USB memory stick, or by visiting a Ford dealership. 2005 nissan xterra owners manual free download.

I have had this truck for exactly a yr now. I have had this truck in the shop over 6 times for this issue of disconnecting from iPhone and also Apple CarPlay . Ford says it’s Apple and Apple says it’s Ford . Also when backing up when the camera kicks on it also stops Apple CarPlay I’m not really worried about who’s at fault just wanting the problem fixed . I can’t even listen to music in my truck so to this issue . Ford has replaced all the components that would possibly make this happen . So this would bring to a wall in the road lol . Can anyone help ?!?!
