#CES2016 – Ford’s Android Auto Implementation of Sync 3

January 9, 2016 by giovanni

You are being redirected to the most updated version of this article on the author’s website at #CES2016 – Ford’s Android Auto Implementation of Sync 3.

Ken Williams, an HIM Product Development Supervisor at Ford tells us about Ford’s new Android Sync 3 implementation. The roll out to current and future Sync 3-equipped cars will happen later this year.

Sync 3 has been optimized to stay out of the way when Android Auto is running by hiding its own redundant systems like the build-in navigation and dialer if they are opened within the custom interfaces, but Ford will automatically launch Google maps and Auto’s own dialer, regardless of which interface you’re looking at. #FordCES
