Where some of the confusion here might come in is that Ford offered "Sync Destinations" until MFT went out of support. Basically if you had a free Sync Destinations account you could send turn by turn directions to any Ford newer than 2012 that didn't have Sync 3. You used the app or the web site to set the start/destination, put in the VIN and it would show turn by turn directions on the cluster message center (if the car didn't have NAV) or on the MFT screen is the car had NAV. 

I concure, I don't think Sync was avalable in 2013   Maybe a 3rd part would be able to assist ... 😎  

Hi Temica Dickerson. Unfortunately, your 2013 Explorer does not have that capability. The ability to use phone apps on the screen was not available until SYNC 3 was introduced several years later.    Good luck. 

Sorry yes I have a 2013 Ford Explorer XLT. I am basically wanting to use my Google Maps on my car screen. I have tried the blue tooth route, I plugged my phone into the car usb with no luck yet. I try to sync it but it says not found. It’s too old to have apple car play so I’m not sure what to do, any insight would be great

Hi Temica Dickerson and welcome to the Ford SYNC Forum. More information may help...such as: - What model/trim level, and model year is your vehicle? - Are you trying to connect using a cable, or connect via Bluetooth? - Which navigation app are you trying to use...etc. etc.  - What country do you live in...i.e. the US, Canada etc.    Keep us updated and good luck.  

I’m trying to be able to get my navigation app on my phone to play on my car screen, and I can’t figure it out, and I need some help
