So I got updated and the main buttons on the bottom of the app are overlayed upon my android buttons, and the android buttons are the only ones that respond so I cannot get off the main screen ... brutal

Are you Early Access? If you are, contact Ford about this glitch. People who have been using swipe gestures would never have noticed this.

I also don't have this issue on my Pixel 9 but, man would I be annoyed to say the least if I did.

Thats brutal.

Make sure to leave feedback, they shoukd be able to pin it down to android version or some other issue.

My Galaxy S23 is working fine with the new app.

I now take that back. For the last several days, my app screen freezes with the last display image from hours or even a day before. Refreshing the app does nothing. I Uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but later in the day, the same thing is happening. I can lock and unlock remotely, starting climate remotely works sometimes. When I attempt to refresh the app, it times out and says " Failed to update" Below is a screenshot from 8 hours ago and won't go away.

This never happened until the new look about a week ago. 🤔
