built in satnav - pairing with an android phone?
Hi - we previously used, with great success, the built in sat nav in our hire Mustang by pairing with with our I phone - Sync 3?
Hubby now has a Huawei which is fully compatible to use in the USA - so should we be able to use the sync 3 as successfully as we did with the I phone? Just wondering if anyone has managed to do this yet? |

Yes, just ensure Android auto is installed on the phone and on first connect add it as a trusted device and grant the correct permissions etc..
I use my AA enabled phone in many hire cars, they all connect easy enough.

Sorry to complicate things but Sync 3 is a Ford only system and only deals with Bluetooth pairing and communications. The navigation will be a separate application and likely a built in system this can some times be deactivated.
Android auto or Apple car play are a system which can mirror the standard navigation from your respective phone. Android software usually mirrors Google maps as default. Apple car play will only mirror the Apple maps application. Your car may have sync 3 without in built navigation, but have Apple car play or Android auto Which allows you to mirror your inbuilt phones navigation system. Its possible also to have sync 3 without Ford navigation or either Apple car play / Android auto. This is unlikely with US spec cars but just in case i would take a phone holder if you are planning on using navigation.

The last few years I haven't had a CD player in any car I've hired in the US.

If taking a Ford make sure you get one with the large touch screen not the super cheap basic tiny LCD display, only available on base model cars. |

Can you tell me why you would want to pair your phone with the GPS anyway?
