Setting Up Ford Alexa

[Flexpy19]

So I'm not technically advanced enough to set up apple car play, but thought it would be relatively easy to set up Alexa+Ford. So I got the app on my phone per the instructions, and it is now asking me to connect my phone to the car via USB cord. So there are like a million USB connectors, so I connected my phone to one of the USB ports where the wireless charger is, but the car still isn't recognizing my phone. Is there a designated USB port to connect my phone?

Make sure your phone is in Bluetooth and in search mode. Same for Sync 3. You will get a txt message with instructions.....

I know how to pair my phone to the car. This is what my phone is telling me to do.

I’m pretty sure you just plug it in anywhere then open Sync AppLink in your center stack. Follow it from there. I set it up at some point but couldn’t really find a use for it.

Honestly, Car Play is way easier to use. I tried the Ford + Alexa thing and it was more trouble than it was worth.
