The update of Google's proprietary on-board system for cars includes a redesigned interface and other useful functionality.
The main innovation of the update was an improved interface. After the update, the map interface has become closer to the driver, and the new multimedia player shows the cover of the composition and the playback scroll bar.
The updated interface has become more efficient to adapt to different display diagonals. In addition, status icons have been added to it, for example, connection to a mobile device, battery charge level and time. Also on the screen you can see the number of notifications, a shortcut for the voice assistant and a navigation key that opens the program inclusion panel or allows you to return to the sidebar.
Context cards have become a significant part of multitasking. Among them there is a card of missed calls and messages with suggested intelligent answers, an instant message card to contacts about the time of arrival, a list of recent places for instant navigation.
Google intends to add the ability to exchange a digital vehicle key not only between Pixel and iPhone devices, but also with some Samsung and Xiaomi devices. In addition, the option to make WhatsApp calls with select Pixel and Samsung models directly from Android Auto will soon be added. Finally, improvements are planned for full autonomous driving for the Volvo EX90 and Polestar 3 vehicles through the use of accurate road data, including road markings, signs and barriers.
