Android Auto has become one of the most valued car systems by users. Interest in Google's system has been growing as many vehicles included the possibility of connecting the mobile and taking advantage of the multimedia system to run the application. So much so that, today, almost any new car that hits the market is compatible with Android Auto. And it is that this system allows us to access many of the mobile applications quickly and safely.But since everything can be improved, Google has decided to give the interface a facelift and add new features in its latest version
The search engine company wants to make the driving experience easier and safer. Oddly enough, Android Auto has been with us for 5 years now, although it has been in the last two when its use has become widespread. According to data from Google, it is currently found in more than 500 car models from 50 different brands. To keep it "fresh", Google is working on a new design that will reach all compatible cars by the end of the year The new interface aims to simplify the most common tasks and display more useful information, thus helping safer driving.
What's new in the next version of Android Auto
In addition to the renewal of the interface, Google has published some of the new features of the next version of Android Auto.For example, the application will be able to continue playing media files and display navigation automatically when starting the car.
There is now a new navigation bar that will allow us to see the instructions of the browser step by step, while we control the applications and the phone on the same screen. In addition, with the new navigation bar we can control the applications with a single touch. In it we will have buttons to control the browser, the audio playback or the telephone.
The notification center has also undergone a renovation. Now shows recent calls, messages and alerts. This makes it easier to choose what to watch, listen to or respond to, depending on the traffic situation.
On the other hand, Android's famous dark theme is also coming to Android Auto The color palette has been changed to be more nice to look at. Also, the fonts have been changed to make it easier to read and improve visibility. To this we must add the adaptation of the interface to various types of screen If the car has a wider screen, Android Auto will maximize the interface to show more information.
According to comments from Google, all these novelties, and many more, will be launched at the end of this summer. So we will still have to wait a few months to test them.
