The Ford App FAQs
Remote Start3 keeps your vehicle locked and secure. If a door is ajar, it will still lock and start. It can be used twice in a row. After that, you will need to start the car manually. It is not available on manual vehicles.
When you send a command, the Ford app uses the internet to talk to your vehicle through Ford’s cloud. Once the vehicle completes the task, it sends a confirmation back to your app. If there’s no mobile or data signal, the Ford app features will not work.
The Ford app uses a built-in global SIM that connects to Telstra, Optus or Vodafone, depending on signal strength. You cannot access or change this SIM.
Yes, once you’ve connected your vehicle as the first user, you can authorise others through the Ford app without needing to be in the vehicle. Up to 10 users can be linked to one vehicle, who have access to the same app features, but only the primary user can add or remove users.
If you are selling or buying a Ford, a reset clears your data. The Ford app Connect reset removes users but keeps SYNC settings. A Master Reset clears everything. To reset, go to SYNC, then Settings, then General, select Reset and choose your reset option.
If you no longer choose to use the Ford app, you can uninstall the Ford app from your mobile device. If you uninstall the Ford app, this will not delete your Ford Account information.
