2017 and 2018 FFE's will definitely be able to use Superchargers with third party adapters like A2Z and Lectron, probably starting in May or June when Tesla opens them up for general usage. We will need to activate via the Tesla app and have an adapter, but there's no reason it wouldn't work.
Thanks for the info, when will the app be available for public use? Is it available for both Android and Apple? What differentiates you from Recurrent?
There is widget for Android phones called Ford Status Widget which works reasonably well with Focus Electrics:

I got it working again, was able to transfer it to my account. Won't run it forever but if you haven't signed up, please do. Good patterns already starting to appear.
I found someone started a Zeemaps of Ford Focus Electric owners. I added myself, feel free to add yourself as well! Let's see where we're all located.

Great! You're welcome. The feedback in the system sucks, they should make it more clear. If my USB didn't blink I'd have thought it wasn't doing anything either.
Just did the update this morning. Successfully running Sync 3.
After updating did a "check for updates" via WiFi, and now it's downloading another file "JR3T-14G423-CA_103602.tar.gz"
Tried a few times, it's unsuccessful. Seems there's an update to the update though. Maybe it will pick it up...
