Hey RawisTheGameHhH!

Congratulations on your new ride! SYNC 3 has a lot of awesome features that you can check out in this link: https://owner.ford.com/how-tos/sync-...th-sync-3.html

I'm unable to speculate on a time frame for software updates, but you can always turn on the automatic download option: https://owner.ford.com/how-tos/sync-...ith-wi-fi.html

There's a cool Siri Eyes Free Feature that works with the iPhones. Check it out! http://owner.ford.com/how-tos/sync-t...th-sync-3.html

Let me know if you want some more info! Cara

Siri works with Sync3. Once you phone is synced just hold down the "M" button (I think that's the one at least ) on your steering wheel and you'll be able to talk to Siri.

Sync3 is honestly the best infotainment system I've ever used in a car. There is ZERO lag with the touchscreen (unlike literally every other car, even Tesla) and it feels like using a tablet or smartphone.

Sync 3 is a great improvement! Love it!

We just traded in our Fiesta ST with the old sync to a new 2016 Mustang GT Premium.

The difference is night and day. The family didn't like the old sync at all. The new sync is much more responsive, user friendly and just works.. Highly recommend it!

If I had any request regarding it, I wish it was customizable in terms of the user interface colors..

Hey RawisTheGameHhH,

This is true! The 2016 vehicles with SYNC 3 will be eligible for an upgrade later on this year, which adds the Carplay feature. Here is some information on how it will work for you: http://owner.ford.com/how-tos/sync-t...y-support.html
