Android Auto 10.9 Stable Version: What’s New
Google does not let go of any opportunity in which it can expand its ecosystem; the Android Auto is also the one product that lets the company provide its services to car display. At first sight, it looks like a great step that makes it possible for users to be convinced of several utilities like navigation systems, easy access to audio systems, and many more, but if we talk about its smooth functionality, the company is unable to give a good experience to the users.
However, in recent updates, the company has tried its best to provide a better experience to the users. For instance, it has received significant changes for the user interface of Google Maps, gained wallpaper sync features, and also resolved issues related to Android 14. Now, continuing this development, the company has rolled out the new update for the users.
Android Auto reaches stable version 10.9
To bring more improvements for users, Google has introduced Android Auto’s 10.9 stable version. However, as per tradition, the company won’t embed any new changelog with the latest update, so it is thought to say if any new significant change will be available to the users or not. But it will definitely undergo some internal changes, which will improve its functioning.
What’s New:
The initial users who experimented with this latest version of Android Auto didn’t observe any major changes right away. This is likely because Google primarily focused on addressing bugs and critical issues. Notably, this version doesn’t include one of the features that Google has been working on—having the same background on both Android Auto and mobile devices. It seems this feature is still in the testing phase, so it might be a while before Google officially rolls it out.
In addition, Google is working on a simpler method to disconnect a smartphone from the main unit while using Android Auto wirelessly. Specifically, they are adding a disconnect button to the smartphone’s notification center. By pressing this button, the wireless connection will be immediately interrupted. This allows users to switch to Bluetooth or connect another smartphone in the car more conveniently.
The latest update for Android Auto is coming as stable, which means it will be available to all the users. To install the latest update, you just have to go to the Google Play Store and type Android Auto in the search bar, and if the update button is on in the result, then tap on it to get the update. Alternatively, users can also install the latest version of the application through this link.
Over the years, Google has made several improvements to its most crucial application, the Google Play Store, and it constantly provides new utility features and improvements. Now, with the latest development, the company is working on a new capability to handle multiple application downloads.
According to the information, Google is looking to bring a new capability to download multiple applications together. Previously, when you tap on the install button of the applications, it starts downloading them one by one. When one application fully downloads, it starts downloading the second application.
However, it is worth noticing that the phenomenon of multiple downloading is limited to only two applications, meaning if you tap on more than three applications to download, it will start downloading two applications while the third one is still pending.
Additionally, the simultaneous download is limited to the new installs, but it will not apply to the update section. We hope that Google may expand the multiple downloads to update phenomenon and may increase the number of downloads together in the next developments.
As per the information, the new change has already started working on several devices, at least for the Android 14 installed devices with the latest version of the Play Store (40.6.31).
Good Lock plays a key role in providing a platform for all the customizing applications or plugins of the Galaxy devices. For information, it provides several types of plugins like NavStar, QuickStar, LockStar, Camera Assistant, and many more. With these plugins, users can perform several customizations for the smartphone UI, including navigation bars, lock screens, home screens, notifications, and many more. To manage these plugins more conveniently, the company has started rolling out the update for Good Lock.
Good Lock is receiving a new update, version 2.2.04.95. With the latest update, the company has introduced some new changes that will fix the phenomenon of installation and deletion of modules, so users can easily manage them according to their requirements.
Along with this, the changelog also says to bring some fixes for the security-related functionalities, so if you are also having some issues while using any of the functions of Good Lock or want to get some performance enhancements, then you should go for the latest Good Lock update.
If you want to install the latest version of Good Lock, you can check its availability from the Galaxy Store. If it is available, tap on the update button, but if it isn’t available, you can also sideload the application through some external sources.
Google’s developers are releasing an update for its Android Auto app with great constancy. After providing stable version 11.8, there is a new beta ready to test.
Google released Android Auto 11.9 Beta Update
This new Android Auto 11.9 beta build landed online a few hours ago, allowing users to test its features before the public rollout begins.
The latest Android Auto 11.9 beta is ready to download for all users who have registered for it. However, the update rarely brings significant changes from the previous updates. The mMountainvViewgiant didn’t offer the changelogs for the Android Auto updates, so the only way to find out what’s new in version 11.9 is to install it on your device and look for changes.
In the previous Android Auto 11.8 update, the redesigned Settings menu began rolling out to users. Installing Android Auto 11.9 beta doesn’t guarantee you’ll get the new Settings interface today, but it is required once Google enables the server-side update on your device.
Keep in mind that Android Auto 11.9 is still in the beta stage. As a result, you may encounter bugs and issues after installing it. As a result, you might experience crashes or other issues while using this beta version.
