Thanks for the tip! The Ford app is not in my car yet. Must not have been installed at the factory, at least on my '24 XL. I will definitely find and install it!

I don't understand what you mean? I use the Motorola MA1 adapter for wireless Android Auto and I can still access the regular FM/AM radio. When in AA tap the bottom left corner of the screen to access you AA apps then tap the "Ford" app and it will bring you to the radio.
I had the Motorola MA1 in my 2015 Prius and I now have it in my 2023 Maverick. No problems going from radio to Android Auto.

I've never seen a Ford vehicle or any other manufacturer without it. I'm sure it's there. You would find it while in Android Auto.
My Mav seems to be the exception. No Ford app.

But your note to use the speaker button does get to the radio options. Many thanks! Next I should read the owner's manual...

I ordered similar one from Temu as one of my first items for my Maverick too. I agree that it is well worth it!

Finally got it today. Took 1 minute to set up. Works like a champ. So glad I didn't spend $70....

Received mine the other day. Plugged that baby in, paired it and it works like a champ. Thanks for sharing this. It's perfect for us technology impaired old folks!

Just wanted to resurface this for any new Mav owners; I purchased one of these a few weeks ago and it finally came in. I am 100% satisfied and it works absolutely perfect. I feel like this is a must have, especially for the price.

Thanks so much for the recommendation!
