Apps like Android Auto from Google make it possible to upgrade cars without an already integrated navigation and multimedia system. The Android Auto mode on your smartphone offers larger buttons, voice commands and fewer distractions. Like other software, Android Auto receives regular updates. The latest update is intended to offer innovations to enrich your everyday driving life, but it is currently not running completely smoothly.
Like the news portal Phonearena reports, Google is currently rolling out Android Auto Update 13.4. This is primarily not intended to offer any new functions, but rather a notable change in the application's user interface. It is intended to synchronize the user interface with the design of your paired smartphone after the update.
According to Phonearena, the new features in the appearance of Android Auto are clearly visible in various places. The news portal has spotted several changes to accent colors in the settings menu, notifications, and notification center. This includes buttons, buttons and switches and even the background colors of cards and menus. In addition, some elements should be able to adapt to the album cover of the song you are currently listening to.
Google's planned transformation of Android Auto to match your smartphone doesn't always seem to work perfectly. For example, if the colors on the smartphone are changed, according to Phonearena, the colors on Android Auto may either not update at all or not update automatically. According to the news portal, in this case you would have to forcibly stop and restart the Android Auto app – in some cases this is apparently the saving tip.
