New cars today come with touch panels that provide you access to various controls, your media playback, and sometimes, even the read parking camera feed. Android Auto allows you to connect your smartphone to the in-car entertainment display, and essentially convert it into a fully functioning Android tablet, giving you access to your favorite Google apps, without having to take your eye off the road.

There are four things that Android Auto is designed to do –
- Use the Google Assistant to get quick answers to your queries.
- Navigate seamlessly to the desired location using Google Maps.
- Make and Receive Calls or Respond to Messages directly from the Android Auto system.
- Entertainment at your disposal (Listen to Music, Hear the breaking News, Listen to Audio Books).
The platform is getting upgraded every few months, bringing in more features and better connectivity with your Android smartphone. What’s more, many third-party apps are also seeing acceptance into the platform, but again, the content is highly curated, and only the best and most optimized apps make it through the process, thus giving you the best and most secure in-car entertainment experience.
