Android Auto’s lightweight theme leaks to be its next big thing: here’s what it looks like

If we had the opportunity to test this new interface with maps and a more worn screen to leave no empty space, for now Google is very relaxed with the global deployment of this new interface so that it now displays the new development you are working on.

A clear theme for the revamp that hasn’t happened yet

This new redesign called Coolwalk already has its improvements according to what we can know today from Google itself with this clear theme.

Google’s idea is that this new redesign is qualitatively improved thanks to the light theme and so Android Auto even looks much better. There is a new clean interface which can be seen in the navigation bar on the left with dark status icons.

This leak comes from reddit via 9to5Google, and also makes it clear that Google still has some work to do. tweak some aspects of the design of the icons themselves. Another of its details is the bottom that continues with the same dark color, although it will receive its adjustments to follow the same design language.

The reason Google is working on a light theme now, and even more so now that most designs tend to lean towards black, is that Android Auto never really had one like that.

The fact that it develops a clear theme makes sense if you take a quick look at Google Maps. Dark mode for navigation in low light was one of its latest developments in recent years and it is understood that it is not to disturb at night, which is why Maps light theme has its compelling reason.

Items display better on screen if there is a lot of direct light from the sun, so having such a theme is important for a navigator who wants to be all in the vehicle.

For the moment we do not know the arrival of this clear theme, and moreover knowing that it was activated by a user from the APK code, so we will leave Google a good margin of maneuver and with the hope that the general deployment of Android Auto with coolwak starting as soon as possible in Europe.
