If you are an Android Phone user and driver, you will need Android Auto. But what exactly does Android Auto do? At its core is how to connect an Android phone to an in-vehicle display.
However, Android Auto not only acts like a big phone that’s always visible, but it’s also used for core communications, entertainment, navigation, and voice-based tasks, so grab the handle and keep an eye on the go. can do.
Of course, you need a compatible vehicle with the required kit. This allows you to connect your Android smartphone via USB for everything to work (some modern cars support Android Auto Wireless, so you can throw away the cable).
Here’s what you can do with Android Auto and its five main features:
1. Excellent navigation with live traffic
Android Auto has a built-in Google Maps for navigation, so you can easily set the routing to go from A to B. Similar to the map, audio (you can mute this if needed) and supplementary data on the secondary screen to assist with lane options, exit junctions, etc. if the car has the necessary support.
In addition to this, Google uses anonymous data from other drivers to monitor traffic live in real time, so you’ll be notified when routes are congested. Notify us that it will take longer or provide an alternative option to give it a try. Reduces drive time.
Besides the Android Auto default navigation, there are a wider range of options. For example, if you’re a Waze user, you can instead do it system-wide and many people describe it as a more optimal experience.
2. Voice messaging in the app
A major feature of Google is the Google Assistant and its voice controls. It is also built into Android Auto. If you choose to use it, it’s especially useful while driving (in the UK you can’t even hold the device while controlling the vehicle) due to the strict laws regarding the use of phones.
The great thing about voice and Android Auto is that everything is integrated. You can send a message to your siblings on WhatsApp or Messenger and instruct the system to direct it. It’s also pretty accurate and always useful.
Android Auto can also read incoming messages with permission. This is useful if you have received an SMS notifying you that your flight has been canceled while driving to the airport, or if you are just trying. Keep up with the latest gossip from the WhatsApp group.
3. Music control
Who doesn’t listen to music while driving? Android Auto is a great way to listen to your favorite songs and through your favorite apps. For example, there is a direct link to Spotify. Or you may want to listen to your favorite shows on the BBC Sounds.
The audio is integrated into Android Auto, so when you request what you want to hear, aloud from any app, the system will find the audio and start playing it. If your car’s steering wheel doesn’t have easy-to-use controls, it’s a great way to skip or pause audio.
4. Easy organization
If you’re planning your personal or work life using a suite of Android and Google apps, you may have lots of meetings set up. AndroidAuto is a great way to take advantage of all these appointments. The system can alert you via a calendar, tap an appointment to start navigation, and use voice to let your contacts know if you’re late.
5. All for free!
Well, that requires a little attention. Vehicles that offer compatibility with Android Auto (not all, for example, Mini is still Apple CarPlay only) and the required built-in screen-based system (after-as a workaround, also use products on the market) I can do it).
Assuming that box is checked, it is: Connect your phone through the USB port (unless Android Auto Wireless is supported, this is a new feature) and grant access and off permissions. All the great features above are yours. To take.
