Drive easy with these clutch Android Auto features

Summer means time to hit the road. Whether you’re gearing up for a beach getaway, mountain escape, or family reunion, Android Auto can help you focus on the road and have fun along the way.

Stay on track while getting lost in your favorite music, podcast, or a good audiobook. You can now search by artist, shuffle, and browse your playlists with new tabs in media apps like Spotify, YouTube Music, and iHeartRadio.

You’ll find more helpful apps than ever with Android Auto support, including navigation apps like Sygic. Once you’ve mapped out your route, find your next spot with parking or electric vehicle charging apps like ChargePoint and SpotHero.

Answer: Neither music nor talk radio, these will keep you entertained on long rides while your eyes stay on the road. Question: What are voice-activated games?

Just say “Hey Google, play a game” to dive into a round of Jeopardy!, Trivia Crack, Song Quiz, and more.

This one’s exactly what it sounds like: Switch between day and night mode map views whenever you want to. Adjust your mode in Settings, or stick to “Automatic” for dark mode to switch on and off around sunrise and sunset.
