android

The version history of the Android mobile operating system began with the public release of its first beta on November 5, 2007. The first commercial version, Android 1.0, was released on September 23, 2008. The operating system is developed by Google on a yearly cycle since at least 2011. New major releases are announced at Google I/O along with its first public beta to supported Google Pixel devices. The stable version is then released later in the year.

    Android Auto is it rubbish?

    Android Auto. Top bar

    Hey guys. I recently updated from r46 to r59. When I was on r46, I had the the top bar on AA but I could pull this down. It was my understanding that updating to r59 would remove the bar but I'd at least be able to view things full screen. Updating hasn't removed the bar but I can now no...
