Maybe you guys could let me know where the Home button is on the steering wheel.

2019 There is no Home Button. They must have changed it with the newer models.

Lariats don't have one, because with the right side info screen, their buttons are are all different than the XL or XLTs.

You didn't get less. You got 10-15 more info screens than those who DON'T have the Lariat. You just don't have a physical button to go Home. Shit, you might have a "Home" option in one of those menu screens that uses the right arrow cluster.

Either way, in your Android Auto, you should have a button that brings up all available AA apps. "Ford" or "Sync" should be one of them. This will take you to the Home area.

If another Lariat owner knows if there is a physical Home button somewhere, let us know so we can help this gentleman help himself.

Until a wise Lariat owner chimes in - you can also hit the icon in the lower left hand side of your Android Auto default view - it looks like 3 rows of dots. Tap that and it takes you to your app list. Tap the “Ford” app and that takes you back to Sync.

Probably more tapping than you were hoping for but that method should work on all trucks with Android Auto.

I made some progress. I tap the lower left hand corner icon twice and it takes me from Waze to the screen with the AA options. First tap gets split screen Waze/Media. I can get into the Ford screen now. Now if I can figure out how to configure the split screen. Dont have any media.
