Apple Watch app *finally* updated!

[LightningShow]

I don’t know when this happened but it must’ve been recently. It now shows a screen with SoC%, time until charged and *charge rate* (!). The second screen shows the climate and lock/unlock buttons. And a third screen showing location and button link to apple maps location view as well as the alarm button.

Very good improvement! I’ve been waiting for that charging info for two years!

I got my Apple Watch in November. That’s how it always worked for me.

Interesting. I keep mine updated and i use it somewhat regularly to start climate control. I just noticed the change today.

Watch 7. I wouldn’t expect they would have different updates but possibly.

Yup, and there is one for Android users as well..

If you look closely, there are three different screens you can scroll through. It may have always been on one of the different ones.

Biggest problem with the Apple Watch app is it's SO SLOW. I can walk out and start my truck faster than it takes to "load" and finally show the buttons.

What is the name of the Android app?

You'll need a Samsung WATCH4 or equivalent, see the playstore for Fordpass where it mentions the watch4 feature.

I don’t find that to be the case. In fact, my watch can do it faster than my phone.

Wow I had no idea there was a watch app thanks for the post.

I had an older Apple 6 watch and it was painfully slow. I’ve had an apple ultra 2 watch for over a year with my iPhone 15pro max . It’s lightning quick and near instantaneous connecting to truck to start, unlock etc. app is much improved the last 2-3 months. I am thinking he newer watch was the true hero though on operational speeds etc.

It's weird, I have an Ultra 2 and a 16 Pro Max and it takes sometimes 30 seconds spinning before it loads the buttons. Thats in the middle of a parking lot next to a cell tower. I can sometimes "short circuit it by going back and reselecting my truck and its faster.
