I am very pleased with my old Droid phone and Torque App. I got the phone from a friend who already replaced it, bought a Bluetooth OBDII dongle for $15 on Amazon, and $5 for the Torque Pro App. Highly customizable what information you desire and how to view it.

They all use the same interface/communication with the computers in your vehicle. So if Ford offered it, any of them can read it. Best to check an F-150 forum for that. If not, then you need to install your own trans temp sensor and gauge.
