Android Auto is a technology by Google that our team at Ivey Motors in Robert Lee, TX feels you should know more about. The technology allows you to access your Android phone’s features through your car’s infotainment system. You may not access every application on your phone, but you can access vital ones, such as messages, music streaming, and phone calls.
Android Auto's aim is to ensure you don’t take your eyes off the road trying to access your phone. In line with this, you can use Android Auto’s features through buttons on your steering wheel or just by saying, “Hey, Google.”
You may need to download the Android Auto application if your phone is Android 9 and below. However, if your phone uses Android 10 and above, the platform comes pre-installed in the operating system.
Android Auto’s applications receive regular updates to offer you a better navigation, entertainment, and communication experience. You will need data to access some apps in the Android Auto platform, such as maps and music streaming applications.
