Google is releasing a new version of Android Auto almost every month, but progress always seems sluggish, to the point that more often than not the company doesn’t even publish the change log.
Android Auto updates to version 7.8
Here are the changes made to the platform as reported on the Android Auto support pages.
- Fixed an issue where calling via Google Assistant was default to using the speaker on Android Auto.
- Questions asked to Google Assistant no longer generate the answer “something went wrong”. (You need to update the Google App to the latest version).
- Music playback was choppy when the device was connected via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi – Samsung has fixed this problem.
- Spotify fixed the bug that the app no longer worked with voice commands on Android Auto.
- OPPO solved the problem that freezing Android Auto when the OPPO smartphone was locked.
- Fixed the problem related to the drop in performance of Xiaomi smartphones after using Google Maps with Android Auto
Unfortunately, Android Auto 7.8 does not introduce the Coolwalk feature announced for this summer, however, it is possible to get the latest version of Android Auto directly through the Google Play Store, or by downloading and installing its APK available on APKmirror.
