I am a long time Viper user, had it on my 2012 Raptor.
I currently have a 2018 Gen2 and was pleasantly surprised when I picked up the truck in March how good the Ford App is. (Fordpass)
Does all the same stuff that my viper did and more, remote start, truck location, fuel level, oil life, recall notices, etc.....oh and it is free, no subscription.

hope this helped.

Agree. + tire pressure, service history. All kinds of stuff.

How do you get tire pressure? All mine does is pop up if it is low - I can't see actual tire pressure values.

My remote start from the fob will start my truck from a pretty long way off. Also works through concrete walls at work into the parking lot. I haven't used the Ford Pass start yet. If you think the Ford fob has a limited range, you haven't tried the Toyota factory start.

Mine has a little picture of a truck with the pressure number for each of the 4 wheels. also provides recommended cold pressure.

Then I have a vehicle hotspot section.

Maybe this is a 2019 thing?
