About this app

Car Dashdroid is a car home dock replacement that makes driving easy, while providing the best infotainment on the Play Store.
Includes Whatsapp, Telegram and facebook messenger reply integration, you can listen to incoming messages and reply without touching the device, start/stop the app using Bluetooth and return from any app to the specially-designed Car Dashdroid homescreen with a press of the Home button while connected (see settings).
This app is very useful for drivers in Uber or Lyft.

 Keep your eyes on the road! You’ll never get distracted by your mobile again, with large buttons and full voice commands ("OK Google" hotword is supported. 

With 3 main sliding panels (you can set up more) you can easily swipe between the dialer, main dashboard and custom shortcuts. Car Dashdroid's built-in Smart Dialer means you won’t have to search for your contacts anymore; just type the contact number or name to dial, or use the build-in Dial Action feature to dial your favorite contacts with one touch.

Set up more than 40 shortcuts for your favorites apps, contacts, and even shortcuts to custom actions like directions to a particular place, opening a specific playlist, or sending a pre-written message (like "On my way!" or "Stuck in traffic!").

Car Dashdroid has built-in music features, allowing you to play your music with a special widget for controls and track details, all without exiting the app (an updated music player will be available soon).
This is simply the perfect pair for your device and car!

Ratings and reviews

I purchased this a long time ago, and it had been fine up until recently. Now, I get ads on the bottom when initially opened, forcing me to close and reopen the app to get it back to normal. Today, I loaded it and got redirected to a shady website via a pop-up. Needless to say, it's uninstalled now. If I purchase something, I don't expect ads and security issues.

App has been great for me these past few months. Truly a great car home screen. However, the latest update appears to be killing waze when I try to launch it, even from my normal launcher. This is a deal breaker. Please fix this problem or I will have to uninstall, and I'd really rather not. I've searched for a useful car home screen like this for so long and was so happy when this worked perfectly.

I was looking for an Android Auto for phones replacement. This app is okay. Definitely usable but has some limitations. As another reviewer said, it does not allow you to put in your address or work address even though it asks for them in the settings. You cannot customize the tabs on the first screen so I pretty much just use screen two where I can put tabs for what I use like Pandora, Spotify and Waze. I would pay a flat fee for the premium features, but not reoccurring fees they ask for.

What's new

* Updated libraries and SDK version and some bugfixing
* In some weeks/months a new re write of the app will be done so soon you can have same UI but better.
Wait for Car dashdroid 4.0 ;)
