A bit embarrassed to ask this one. Is there a way to see the outside temp on the drivers screen behind wheel? When using carplay I can't figure out how to see the outside temp. I also can't seem to find any type of home button when using carplay to get back to setting etc without killing the music. So far I find the electronics not very user intuitive. Coming from a RAM, I thought U Connect was bad, I think the Sync is worse so far. I have read the manual, watched videos. I'm an IT guy by trade, surprised I can't figure out how to see the outside temp on any screen but the home screen on stereo. Thx for any help....

You’ll either have to ask Siri the temp or go back to the SYNC screen by hitting the Ford button.
With that being and since Android Auto now displays the temp, it’s only a matter of time before Apple CarPlay has this feature as well.

With android when it shows the temp, does it show the actual temp from the truck or from a weather ap? I know it seems trivial, but when traveling over passes etc it is really nice to know if it is 26degrees in the fog, or 32/33. Its not a big deal to switch away from carplay, just crazy they don't show it in the drivers information screen... Failure by ford IMO... But then again I wouldn't of thought it would be so hard to get a wheel to hold air

From it's weather app. I agree wish it would show the truck's but that would be a struggle for Android and all of the various car manufacturers.
