android auto

Android Auto is a mobile app developed by Google to mirror features of an Android device, such as a smartphone, on a car's dashboard information and entertainment head unit.
Once an Android device is paired with the car's head unit, the system can mirror some apps on the vehicle's display. Supported apps include GPS mapping and navigation, music playback, SMS, telephone, and Web search. The system supports both touchscreen and button-controlled head units. Hands-free operation through voice commands is available and recommended to reduce driver distraction.
Android Auto is part of the Open Automotive Alliance, a joint effort of 28 automobile manufacturers, with Nvidia as tech supplier, available in 36 countries.

    Android auto VS Easy connect in Thailand?

    Dear all :) I believe there is a huge difference between the European moddels and Thai models when it comes to the infotainment system. For example it appears that the Thai model doesn't have android auto and instead it has third party easy connect integration as shown in this video: 1...

    MG ZS EV Microphone not working in Android Auto

    Whenever I place or receive a call via Android Auto or Bluetooth, the inbuilt mic doesn’t seem to work as the other party can’t hear me at all.

    The old Android Auto problem!

    I've had our ZS EV Exclusive a couple of weeks now (from new) and have to say we are very impressed with most things. We sold a Jaguar XF (2.0D 2016 Portfolio model) and the MG measures up pretty well against it considering that it is half the price of the Jag from new. We both think that the...
