Goody Report post Posted January 13, 2016 Whatever happened to setting an address in the phonebook as a destination in Navigation? At one time I could go to the phonebook and select an address as my Navigation Destination. Since 3.8 that option is gone and I have to go through the whole address entry process in Navigation. What a pain!QuoteMultiQuoteEdit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
md13ffhguy Report post Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) I never realized that had been an option. However, I'm done being mesmerized by the MFT "technology" in my 2013, and I no longer use the built-in navigation. The updates have done extremely little to improve things. Sad to think some useful options might have been removed. Edited January 14, 2016 by md13ffhguy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Waldo Report post Posted January 14, 2016 If you can convince every phone manufacturer to use a standard address format, then Ford can bring back the option. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goody Report post Posted January 29, 2016 The ability to apply an address in the phonebook as a destination in Navigation was there before it disappeared in MFT before v3.8. Why remove a feature? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
talmy Report post Posted January 29, 2016 They probably have limited space, so to add new features they have to eliminate old ones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We got suckered into paying the $$$ for the MFT nav in our Explorer - I specifically looked for my FFH equipped to avoid it as a result. MFT nav isn't much worse than most competitive systems (e.g. Toyota Entune, Honda/Alpine) and like them is a poor consumer value - the map updates @ $150 are particularly galling when I can have more updated maps on my phone for "free". Or I can have a lifetime update dedicated nav for less $$ than the map update. And all of the above allow phone sharing with the addresses... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
