Ford vehicles with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto in Edmonton AB

Edmontonians are a hard-working, friendly breed of people, always able to go the extra mile for every job with a smile on their faces. It makes sense, then, that you’d need a vehicle that’s able to keep up with this connected lifestyle. Recent model years from 2014 onward have seen new tech innovations like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto enter the picture. These app integration systems are some of the coolest on the market, and we want to dive into their features and functions today. So, join Sherwood Ford as we take you through all the Ford vehicles with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto in Edmonton AB!



Features and Functions of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

Both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto have been developed with the ultimate goal of keeping you connected, controlled and safe on the road. By pairing your compatible iPhone or Android phone to their respective interfaces, you can access maps, hands-free calling and texting, media playing and more from your Ford model’s SYNC infotainment screen. This way, your vehicle turns into an extension of your phone’s apps, eliminating the need to look down at it whenever you need to accomplish something.
