Ford’s SYNCMyRide App Transfers Contacts to Your Car

ford-sync-phoneBluetooth connectivity between phones and SYNC-equipped Fords is nothing new, but the problem is that a good number of handsets out there in the wild don’t support phonebook download (seriously, check the compatibility chart) which means you can’t dial names by voice and what’s the fun in calling anyone if there isn’t at least a small chance of your car confusing “Dad” for “Vlad”?.

That’s where Ford’s all-new SYNCMyRide comes into play, an app for Windows and Mac machines that’ll take the names and numbers (up to 2,000) off your lame vintage handset and stick ‘em on a USB drive; from there, you just plug the drive into your SYNC’s port and kick off an upload. It’s compatible with every SYNC-equipped car on the road today, so we’ve hooked you up with a link to go grab it but only begrudgingly, since we’d obviously love to see you upgrade to a better phone instead.
