Overview: Taking Google Assistant on the Road with Ford
An innovative application of cross-platform technology is making it easier than ever for drivers to stay connected to both their vehicles and their smart homes. Using the power of Google Assistant, Ford owners can now remotely access a range of their vehicle's features from their home, as well as control smart home functionalities on the go. This technology is available through Ford's exclusive FordPass Action and a FordPass Connect equipped vehicle. Let's explore how this integration works and the enhanced user experience it provides for Ford owners in Corpus Christi, Portland, Robstown, Aransas Pass, Rockport, Kingsville, Sinton, Port Aransas, Ingleside, and Alice, TX.
Features of FordPass Action and Google Assistant Integration
FordPass Action integration with Google Assistant allows Ford owners to engage with their Ford vehicles remotely. Once set up, FordPass equipped vehicles can interact with a Google Home device and Google Assistant apps on a user's phone, giving you control over your vehicle from wherever you are. For instance, users can remotely start or stop engines, check fuel levels, and lock or unlock their vehicles. All this is done simply by giving voice commands to Google Assistant.
Intriguingly, this connectivity extends beyond the vehicle. With FordPass Action and Google Assistant, not only can you communicate with your vehicle remotely, but you are also able to control select smart home devices from within your vehicle. This includes functionalities such as turning off household lights or adjusting the thermostat temperature – an incredibly convenient feature for the modern Ford driver.
Implementing FordPass Action & Google Assistant Integration
To start benefiting from this seamless integration of technology, Ford owners need to first set up their devices. This requires the FordPass app and the Google Home and Google Assistant apps installed on your phone. Once set up, users can connect their FordPass account with their Google Home device using their FordPass username and password. To ensure security, users will be required to create a pin to access certain features. Once this step is completed, users can start using Google Assistant with their FordPass equipped vehicles.
In addition to being able to interact with your Google Home device, FordPass equipped vehicles can also be linked to Google Assistant through Android devices via Android Auto and a USB port. This enhanced connectivity enables in-vehicle control of certain smart home devices.
