Addition-ally, make sure you pair and connect yourphone to SYNC 3 in order to find AppLink-capable apps on your device. iPhone usersmust also connect to a USB port with an AppleUSB cable.
You did not connect an Applink Compatiblephone to SYNC 3.
AppLink Mobile Applications: When I select"Find Mobile Apps," SYNC 3 does not find anyapplications.
Make sure you have downloaded and installedthe latest version of the app from your phone'sapp store. Make sure the app is running onyour phone. Some apps require you to registeror login to the app on the phone before usingthem with AppLink. Also, some may have a"Ford SYNC" setting, so check the app'ssettings menu on the phone.
AppLink-enabled apps are not installed andrunning on your mobile device.My phone is connected, but I still cannot findany apps.
Closing and restarting apps may help SYNC3 find the application if you cannot discover itinside the vehicle. On an Android device, ifapps have an 'Exit' or 'Quit' option, then selectit and restart the app. If the app does not havethat option, select the phone's settings menu
Sometimes apps do not properly close andre-open their connection to SYNC 3, overignition cycles, for example.
