If there were any changes to Ford Pass you would make, list them here.
This is one of my changes I would make.
It takes 4 clicks to get to Securilock to make a change or see if it's armed or not.
Takes too much effort to arm and disarm.

It'd be cool if it did voice integration. I mostly use it for the remote unlock/lock. If it did Google Assistant / Siri, it'd be cool.
You can interact with Ford Pass through "Alexa" .
I've used it to remote start, not sure but I think it will control your locks also.
You have to enable Ford Pass in the Alexa app.

I can make a list of items:
  1. I want real patch notes so I can see bug fixes and feature adds.
  2. In "Truck Details" I want to be able to see the firmware version of every module in my truck, and if there's an available OTA update.
  3. Better integration to Sync 4, such as ability to change truck settings remotely
  4. Ability to toggle hotspot without having the truck be on
  5. Ability to stream from any camera on the truck.
    1. Ability to record the stream or give you alerts of actions are detected
  6. Fordpass available for login via PC or Mac

I do turn my front camera on when I'm parking..
Has to be 5mph or slower for it to activate.
I do enjoy using it.

OMG thank you for this post.
1) I can start my truck from inside my camper but;
A) can’t turn on my pro power genset
B) can’t use my trucks WiFi
C) can’t set the cabin temperature
D) can’t adjust seat temp
All I want is EVERYTHING available from FordPass app as if I started the truck from within the cab.

Besides that?? It’s a pretty good app and I play with it all the time. Check for recalls, schedule services, set Zone lighting to satisfy my needs, course start my truck when I want and I can even schedule a start for the next day. If ya haven’t used it…. Maybe give it a try??

The concept is brilliant but definitely needs some tweaking, less clicks and more features.

I do too, really useful pulling up in spots and centering. This is the biggest vehicle I have owned and coming from a Wangler that was very easy to park the 360 camera is super useful.

I have used it six or seven times for remote start and I have had to update it three times.

I can see updates being needed for security reasons but it would be nice that at the very least the manual can be read without the update.
