FORScan - software to enable/disable features in your truck

I wanted to ask the ForScan gurus, I see a lot of Auto Stop disable discussion. Has anyone added the Auto Stop/Start feature to a 2016 Limited? I know that 2016 has them. The 2016 is the ecoboost, but for some reason, the Limiteds do not offer this feature. In 2017, the limited got the auto stop/start and a 10 speed transmission. that's the only change I've been able to see.
Anyone add this feature? I like trying to put all the accessories into the vehicle.
This is the 2016 Limited Dash. (I added Hill Descent on mine)
This is the 2017 Limited Dash. They added Auto Stop

Yea, I went through the thread about adding it. Nor worth it to me. I've driven a platinum explorer with or and wasn't impressed. The system on my wife's Honda pilot is much better.

I'm not sure if it's dependent on the version but on my Sync 3 v3.0 I tried yesterday to change the boot animation from the GT to the normal one without changing the theme and the GT blue color theme went away so it appears it is tied to the boot animation.

On your spreadsheet it was noted the splash screen must be active for Sync 3 V2.2 also, that's what I had been basing my info off of.

I had a pleasant surprise today. Added the code to display the placarded tire pressure to the tire pressure display. I thought I was going to have to learn hex but the spec'd tire pressure was already there.

Yeah but then I thought I remembered someone saying it was possible on a higher version of Sync so while I'm unsure about that, it doesn't seem to be possible on 3.0 that I'm using.

I tried 3 different splash screens - each one rebooted and went to the GT theme but switched to the normal blue within a second or two. Only S-screen that would hold the theme was the GT
