Android Auto to Gain Wallpaper Sync Feature
The ability to choose a personalized photo as the wallpaper is something that Android auto users have requested for a long time, as they needed more alternative wallpapers. Although Google has been ignoring these requests in the past, new data indicates that a significant change is on the way. With the release of Android Auto version 10.7, which is currently available through the Google Play Store, it seems that Google is developing a feature that would let users synchronize paper on their mobile device with Android Auto. In other words, it can be claimed that Google is actively working on this new feature; however, no precise information on the launch date has been revealed.
Android Auto Will Soon be Able to Match Your Phone’s Wallpaper
You can focus while driving with Android Auto, which puts apps on the car’s display. Navigation, calls, text messaging, maps, and music are among the features that you may manage. Android Auto just shows the wallpaper in the app drawer right now. Taking over the enter screen, the CoolWalk interface hides the wallpaper behind it and lets users run many apps simultaneously on one screen. Since Version 10.0 launched in July, Android auto-upgrades have been released on a regular basis. A few strings appear to be related to battery changes and changes to the way that apps can specify the car and where it can be parked.
As stated earlier, users would be able to support the phone’s wallpaper on the dashboard of their cars using this platform. Though it doesn’t seem to be accessible just yet, not even in beta, this option should show up in the Android Auto menu settings. Looking back, Android Auto added a wallpaper feature only a few years ago. But this new feature of allowing the car’s wallpaper to match the smartphone’s wallpaper would bring a new level of user experience. As of now, no information is available when all the users can experience this upgrade.
Thanks to “9to5Google“
Google Android Auto is successful in making its place in the hearts of the hearts of a lot of car drivers. With its convenience features and useful navigation system, infotainment has become very popular, and to maintain its popularity and consumer engagement in its service, Google frequently provides new updates where it aims to refine the usage of the application.
Google plans to reshape Android auto functionality in the future
Google is planning to unlock the potential of Android Auto with compatibility enhancement. The company is focused on bringing new applications for streaming and gaming, and cars equipped with Android Auto would like to see an increase in compatible apps thanks to the growing size of the in-car display. This will provide a new space to play games and stream more comfortably.
What’s new for developers?
Google is simplifying the process of adding new apps to Android Auto and cars with built-in Google software; this includes new guidelines for developing apps compatible with various screen sizes and shapes. The app’s development can require early review for streamlined authorization.
For more comfort for developers, the company will introduce a new tiered system where an app developer will make the application pass all three levels to finally publish on Android Auto.
Several new apps are coming to Android Auto and Android Automotive
There are several new apps that will be introduced for both Android Auto and Android Automotive. There will be some new streaming services, including Max and Peacock coming to cars with built-in Google from Renault, Polestar, and Volvo. Alongside the Angry Birds game, an Uber Driver app is arriving on Android, which will allow the user to accept rides, manage deliveries, and get directions directly on the car display.
Additionally, Google is testing some more messaging and weather-related apps for Android Auto, as well as videos, games, and browsers that are marked as coming soon.
