Montigoo Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Whilst configuring Ford SNYC I noticed there was an "Apps" section.. Had a quick look online but could only find 4/5 official apps through the Ford Website, none of them I wanted to install.. Anyone know of any other Apps you can install? What's your experience with these? Thanks In Advance Montigoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt1981 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 The selection of apps is very poor, I think it might be more for the american market, I've not used any either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan_95 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Do you need to download them by USB? Then plug that into the car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andywhit Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 You don't install the apps onto the car, you install them onto your phone as per a normal smartphone app (so from iTunes for Apple, Play store for Android). The Ford Sync system can then connect to the app on your mobile over bluetooth and integrate with it. So you can use voice or the sync menu to play Spotify tracks etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montigoo Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 Cheers! Hopefully they bring out a wider range later this year.. Montigoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andywhit Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Yeah, the current selection is pretty naff. Spotify and Glympse being the two I might actually use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gillyallan Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I think it only works with paid Spotify. Not the free version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andywhit Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I think it only works with paid Spotify. Not the free version. Nope, I'm using the free version and it works for me. This is what I do. 1. Enable bluetooth on the phone (assuming you've already paired the phone with the car) 2. Press the Voice button on the steering wheel and say "Spotify" 3. Ford sync starts up spotify on the phone. 4. Press voice button again and issue voice commands to spotify (see commands at the bottom of the following link) http://support.ford.com/tools/applink-catalog-detail?platform=iOS&idApp=324684580&idCat=48759a24-df5d-e311-b8b3-0022197af4af Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
