New week, new version of Android Auto. Google just updated the app to the version 11.5 stableso that all users will receive it as another update through Google Play, without depending on beta programs nor APK.
Android Auto 11.5 arrives on our phones exactly two weeks after the last stable version. As usual, we have tested Android Auto 11.5 in search of news.
Update now to Android Auto 11.5
Google continues updating Android Auto like clockwork, on time every week, even though new versions do not always translate into new features that users can try on their mobile phones. And Android Auto 11.5 looks like one of these versions where the changes go inside.
In Android Auto 11.5 we will see highlighted the applications that cannot be used with the car running with a parking P badge. This has already happened since Android Auto 11.4, although taking into account that Google has changed its mind on the matter several times (previously a dot was shown and then it changed to the car icon), the fact that it is maintained is already a novelty in itself . Maybe they are finally satisfied with the result.
