Android version not showing in Play Store yet.
Don't know if it would work the same for Android, but several times when other forum members have said an iOS update for FordPass was available, I'd go to my list of iOS app updates available under my account or go to the app listing in the App Store and not find the update. The App Store short listing would just have an OPEN button. However, as soon as I tapped the detailed app description, the OPEN button would change to an UPDATE button. I wonder if this is a form of BETA testing? Don't advertise the new version to ordinary users, but give the "go-getters" what they want! Hey! You asked for it. So, THWUNK... Right up the old wazoo! 😂

I used your method, no new updates :crying:

Ford F-150 Lightning FordPass 5.6.0 iOS & Android 1727914323025-iq


Generally I just go to the Play Store, then tap my user account, then manage apps & devices, then Manage, then Updates Available, then check for updates, it''ll scan the app store with what is installed on my device and present a pick list of apps showing new versions.

There are times when some apps that are dormant and rarely used won't populate to this availability list until I actually make use of the app, then go and check for new versions, low & behold one might pop up.

But I'm using Fordpass daily and it's always active / not allowed to go into deep sleep condition.

I'd say they just haven't finished work on the android version, it'll come out "soon".

Not available to me in the Play Store as of yet. Do you see any significant changes from 5.5.0?

Just got the 5.6 update today on Android. Well, the Location feature is now broken and doesn't do anything when I tap it. It used to show a map of where the truck is. Are others having this same problem with 5.6?

Try force-stop & clear cache to see if that helps, mine is working fine.

I already had tried this once. Tried is again, unfortunately it did not work. The app programmers are absolutely terrible today. They apparently do zero testing of their code.

It took them more than a week to release the android version after the iOs came out, what were they doing all this time??
