My personal and professional ecosystem chosen is that of Apple, but as soon as I am in the car, I have clear it: I take my Google Pixel and Android Auto because it seems more complete and better than Apple Carplay (although it does not beat it in everything). Of course, I already advance something: Do not use the Android Auto that comes from Google Standard.
Thus, I took a twist to release all its potential and for that, the first step is to activate the developer mode, which opens the doors both to have more adjustments and to allow unknown sources to have more applications compatible with Android Auto (which are not in Google Play Store), which in turn opens the doors to those Functions for Android Auto that Google does not allow.
Watch videos
Of course See the videos while driving is not a good idea at allBut you can wait for someone in a parking lot and spend time watching a YouTube video or spending camping and entertaining with content without problem.
It is The prohibited function of Android Auto And there is no other but several ways to unlock it. If what interests you is youtube, the best options are Carstream and Cartube. Both work similar and can be installed from the Android Auto Apps downloader, for which you will first need to lower your APK.
However, there are also more variations such as See videos from other streaming applications or watch videos you have on your mobileFor which you will really do two other “prohibited” functions: for the first, you will need a web browser and for the second to launch chromecast content. Throughout this article, we tell you how to do it.
See tdt
To see the content of the DTT on the Android Auto screen in reality, what you do is Play an IPTV list. Here, several steps are necessary: the first is to install the Aastore Alternative Applications platform (from its Github repository) and once, download IPCARTV.
Then you will need the link of a good IPTV list. I generally recommend TDT channels because it is often updated and IPTV Org, my favorite with more than 10,000 channels and available in Github. Copies and fight the URL, you follow a few more steps and that's it: Your Android Auto has become a lifetime television.
Throw the mobile screen at the chromecast car
HAS Throw the mobile screen at the Android Auto panel There are also a few options: you can use the very complete Fermata Auto which is a 4 in 1 to watch YouTube, DTT, mobile videos or the mobile screen simply by downloading your file from GitHub, following the steps and granting the relevant steps.
However, you can also Duplicate the mobile screen With AA Mirror Plus, although you will have to download the Android Auto Auto Apps Downloader APK. And another good option: use the local video player, the objective of which is to reproduce videos at home. In this case, it is lowered thanks to the discharge from the AA store.
See the videos of a USB
There are consoles that allow Load and reproduce the audiovisual content of the USBBut not all. Precisely for those who do not allow it, there is this option, which is always a version of the previous case: we will have to connect USB memory to the mobile port (for this, it is ideal or that memory is a USB-C type or use an adapter) and once done, use an application that doubles the screen in Android Auto. The two major advantages are that you do not spend data or do not consume a storage space for your mobile.
Use a web browser
It is not very common or comfortable Use the Android Auto screen to navigate online And of course, this is not a good idea by driving, but there may be special situations in which it occurs well, for example if you want to read an integrated video on a specific website or extract the browser version of certain streaming services.
Having a web browser in Android Auto is possible thanks to an application, the bad news is that It is a semi-produced project and he sees himself As if it is functional, the appearance is coarse: the application is WebViewauto and you can download it from Github. He has his own keyboard, although our recommendation is to shoot the mobile to write.
