When will there be a new update for Android Auto?
The Billion Auto Group showroom is home to some of the most popular automotive brands in the world. One of the things that tie most, if not all of them together is a growing commitment to providing vehicle owners with the latest smartphone connectivity technology. Android Auto™ is able to integrate the native functionality of each automaker’s infotainment system with the applications available through the phone smartphone software. Since vehicles have offered this capability for a few years, we’ve been getting a lot of questions wondering, ‘When will there be a new update for Android Auto?’ According to an article on AutoBlog, Google will be vastly changing its automotive interface in the very near future. Let’s take a look at what we can expect to see.

What will the new Android Auto look like?
However, the most exciting change coming with the new Android Auto update will be how it helps different applications work together. Current and older versions of the Android Auto interface required users to back out of whatever app they were using in order to access another one. It looks like a function bar will remain on the bottom of the touchscreen so that someone can be looking at Google Maps and still have the ability to skip forward or back on their favorite podcasts or playlists.
Stay tuned to the Billion Auto Group Blog to learn how you can get the new Android Auto update for your vehicle. If you’d like to see this technology in action, make an appointment with one of our product experts today.
