I remember that in the past I was getting a notification on my iphone when Walk Away Lock activated.

My PaaK and WAL hasn‘t worked for a while, until last week, when Ford Mobile tech figured out the BlueTooth antenna in the driver door had failed. The handle was replaced and now it’s working 100%.

But I am not receiving any notifications on my iPhone when Walk Away Lock is activated. Is there a setting I missed that I need to activate on the car, phone or APP?.

Does anyone know?

I know nothing about how the iOs works, but from the Android perspective if this is a problem for them here are the steps to confirm the app's basic notifications settings are correct.

If this solution path isn't possible in some fashion on iOs, then full uninstall & reinstall might remedy and mis-configurations that have crept in to your particular setup.

Android

Hold the Ford Pass app icon for extended period to cause this view, select the i.

My notification section didn't have wal or paak. Makes me wonder if not having paak is the reason I don't have wal.

Yes, that would be the reason your configuration is missing those switches

OP here.

I was able to enable WAL Notification by turning off and then turning Allow Notification back on.
