Ratings and Reviews
hacked
Used to work flawless. After last Android update, yesterday, it keeps telling me I'm using an outdated version yet I cannot update the current version. Tried everything and nothing works.
excellence in performance
Unusable since latest update. I now have to uninstall and reinstall android auto on my phone every time I want to use it regardless of what car, cable or wireless connection I am using. My daughter is also having the same issues so I know it's not me. Desperately need an update to fix this please. I've been through all the troubleshooting and it still doesn't work. very disappointed as I've been using this for many years and rely on it daily and now I can't use it at all!!
i can't connect my phone to my car it's saying my phone not supporting Android Auto, it's was working for many years please fix the problem
Super handy to navigate navigation and Music from my car and motorcycle.
