Is it me or did Ford remove the ability to view the Pro Power Onboard functions? I am an iPhone user and currently using the truck to power frig and other devices since Beryl knocked out power.

You are correct. Ford has removed from the updated app.

Who at Ford thought removing the Pro Power Onboard functions from the App would be a good idea? Doubt they discussed this with user’s using it. It’s another issue with this truck that is adding to my frustration.

It's the one feature I miss the most. During power outages ( we have too many ) that function helped me monitor and load balance the two legs.

In same boat here N of Houston and just realized it's gone. Heck! So no monitoring of performance to know when to refill tank? Smart! Ah, guess it will be obvious when devices turn off and truck runs out of gas to recharge battery.

How is everyone holding up there? Millions without power I read. My mom is there and both her phones are out.

Ok but most are saying we want to confirm only Cat1, wow! Gust winds seemed to be more than 80. On phones, saw note of Verizon and ATT only had 30% coverage earlier. Better now with Verizon connections working.

Tracking my performance with fridge and couple small fans so far. Unfortunately I have to walk out to truck to confirm. I see the 'range' of miles estimated so may test that too.

I am using the truck for power after Beryl also. Every time I want to check what my usage is and have to go out to the truck makes me furious. They need to fire the guy that decided to remove that functionality from the app. Their new and improved app is really useless unless you want to remote start the truck. Typical Ford to screw a good thing up.

Agreed. Although I’m sure it is an entire team that needs to be fired!

OK, so I have been running the Powerboost for 25 hours straight. About 60 miles driving. About 1/2 of the total time was just me sitting/working/sleeping in it at work, and the other 1/2 running ProPower for fridge, fans, TV for the kids......

It has a 30 gallon tank and in 24 hours it has used about 1/5 of the tank.

I do miss the FordPass features, especially the Bluetooth extended ones. But I assure you that I'm not anxious about running the generator dry. ???

This ain't no Honda 2000

Whoever decided to remove the use of zone lighting, monitoring pro power onboard, and payload calculator from the app should be fired.
Unlimited up to this idea.
That decision maker has to be fired.

The app still has distance to empty, so you can kind of see how much gas is left.
