In short
Android Auto - Maps, Media, Messaging & Voice is a free Android app developed by Google LLC. This app is recommended for commuters. This is a good app to find music.
Highlights
Smooth and effective on Google Pixel
And being able to switch between Google Maps and Waze is awesome
I enjoy it with google play musik and waze
More flexible via map points and podcast play lists
Great tool for any length car trip
Other than that I really love having Android Auto in my car
It's a joy to use Android Auto
Using this with a Kenwood 9703s hooked to a galaxy s8
I love the voice commands for finding music or destinations
I absolutely love Android Auto it is amazing and so easy to navigate
Google searches are almost useless
Im getting google play services error whenever i connect my phone
Google play music app does not show stations or moods
Still unable to send voice messages on wechat
And the built in music app all crash the android auto for me
This texting option has very bad listening skills
With s6 i was not able to change tracks on my play list
Bugs on the spotify app spoil it
All car radio functions do not work
And frequent disconnects make it hard to rate the app any higher
