Synch 4 update?

Got in my 2022 F350 yesterday and looked at my synch 4 screen. Instead of the usual 3 screens, I see 3 separate screens. I found that I can change from on to two screens (as before) but I can ad a third screen in the middle. I don't know if I got an update overnight or if it's something that was always there, but I did not notice

You can check the version you have in the update menu. IIRC current version is 3.5.2

This is your android OS doing it. this wasnt a sync 4 update, it was an android update.

Yes, this is an Android auto update. I noticed this on both the 2018 Edge Sync 3 and the 2022 F250 Sync 4. Not sure if I like it or hate it.

Thanks for the insight. Will look at my wife's 2109 synch 3, or maybe leave it alone

I've been using the new AndroidAuto version for a few days. It takes a bit of getting used to but I now like it. Note that if you tap on the map or audio screen, it will full screen for you so works just like the previous version. Then tap the icon in the bottom left corner, and it resorts to split screen view. I do like the split screen view where I can see the map and a little detail on the audio at the same time. This change was pretty critical for the larger screens now coming in vehicles (e.g. the optional 12" screen in the 2023 Super Duty). Just a map was a waste of space.

It will be nice when we finally get the full screen sync update from ford.
