Screen Saver?

How do you change the Ford screen saver to a custom one from your photos from your phone?

Are you talking about Sync?

There's no screen saver in Sync that I'm aware of?

Tricon, I believe they are talking about the "wallpaper" as opposed to a screensaver. I know you can use your own pics on a Fiat product but I have not seen the option to do this on a Ford.

It seems like this is possible on earlier versions of sync. My friend has a fusion that has an option to change the wall paper, but it is missing from my settings. If anyone figures this out let me know.

My 2015 you can download pictures from a phone or a stick. I have not tried my wife's 2017 or do I have my 2017 F-250 yet I think its going to be built this week.

You could do it on the previous model, 2011-2016 but I don't believe that is an option on the 2017's+.

Exactly I thought I read somewhere you can change it.

You did, I did too, I can't find the info. If I remember, you have to download what you want onto a flash drive from your pc, then plug the flash drive into your usb port and the options available should pop up. But it doesn't seem that easy, I'll keep searching for the video/instructions, I know it was from "myford.com"

I found one for changing the splash screen for SYNC 3 on a Fusion on YouTube. But it requires FORScan.
