It’s on my screen. Looks like either Ford or CarPlay updated the software. On main 12” screen on CarPlay map. Not on the Ford Map so I am leaning on the update from CarPlay.

I like it.

I spent way too long trying to figure out what this thread wasn't safe for before finally clicking and looking.

Anyone else disappointed they only got a 12" screen instead of the 15" the OP got?

I'm happy with my 8" screen, there's enough distractions out there without a 15" screen...or 12" for that matter.

It would be nice if there was a compass visible with the gps not on.

I have never seen anyone write North, South, East and West like that. I waited too to look at this thread. I thought it was a band.

My 8" screen has a compass on the home screen; then apple carplay has a directional location in the top right hand corner (NSEW). I like the old style of compass/temp that used to be in the rear view mirror, but I think that was Chevy.

For you guys with little brain power, the E in the top right corner means East.

that is using Google maps, right? It is not Apple native maps. Apple has had that compass for quite a while now.
