Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens Wu Yanzu in South China for the delivery of clues! CTOnews.com, January 7 (Xinhua)-- the new Android Auto, which was first unveiled at Google's I / O conference in 2022, is now available to users, and the new Android Auto uses a new user interface design.

The new Android Auto uses a modern user interface design and a split-screen layout. The main interface consists of three modules: a navigation bar, the main application interface, and a smaller sidebar, which can display one or two gadgets.

The split-screen layout can be adjusted to suit any size or orientation of the screen of any car. The navigation bar can be placed on the right or at the bottom. The main application interface can be next to or placed on the sidebar. The sidebar can be a tall vertical bar or a thin horizontal bar.

Overall, the redesigned interface simplifies navigation, communication and media playback, as well as new dialogue shortcuts to help users make phone calls and reply to messages.

CTOnews.com learned that Google is also adding Android Auto features. Newer Pixel and Samsung phones will soon support WhatsApp calls, the company said. Google Assistant now offers smart advice on missed calls, arrival time sharing, music and podcasts.

In addition to Android Auto, there are some vehicle upgrades coming. In the near future, Samsung phones will support digital car key sharing, and Xiaomi mobile phone users will have this feature later in 2023.
