Best features and functions of SYNC AppLink

We have to hand it to Ford here – in terms of tech advancement, no other vehicle manufacturer comes close to what it’s been able to produce. All new Ford models are outfitted with SYNC® infotainment technology, which plays out as its own full operating system, in the same vein as Apple’s iOS and Android OS. Today, our Sherwood Ford team wants to show you some of the best features and functions of SYNC AppLink, Ford’s in-house app suite – check out all that you can do inside your model of choice!
