cool I have a job 1 2021 powerboost like you do. I was hoping to try alexa and hoping the wireless charger actually starts to work and not just heat up the phone
I wouldn’t get too excited about Alexa yet. The GWM is available on FDRS and I think a couple of people have gotten it OTA. I haven’t. There’s no ETA on the APIM and subsequent updates for 21s that will get you Alexa. I’ll believe it when I see it. The WACM likely will require a dealer visit or an FDRS session.

Would someone be willing to check my VIN? I believe I have the gateway update pending but want to make sure before I spend the $50.

Alexa APIM update showed up for '21 J1 Mach-E about a week ago or maybe more. So it should be coming for the F-150 as well. Yesterday '21 J1 Mach-E got the FDRS GWM update that enables video streaming while parked (YouTube, NBC News, Today show).

I am aware of all of that. To add to your list the Bronco and Lightning have recently been getting love as well. I think the 21s (F-150) have been pushed down the priority list. So, I stand by what I said. I’ll believe it when I see it. I’m not overly persuaded by the experience of the 21 Mach-e. Different screen and it has always had a different collection of goodies than the F-150. Plus, it benefits from Ford’s corporate push to go full electric. By contrast, the 21 F-150 is already showing it’s age on Ford’s priority list. Case in point: the campaign to fix BlueCruise has already expired. Not exactly a show of support for an older model year.

I just got notification of this update as well. How long does it tke ? I just accepted it.
I didn't time it, but whenever I let my updates go via FDRS I would let the truck sit for 20 minutes.
