Although hinted at almost two months ago, it seems that Google Meet is now truly rolling out for Android Auto.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As noted, a brief hint that this would happen occurred a few weeks ago. However, this \u201crollout\u201d did not actually appear to be widespread, nor did it show Google Meet running on Android Auto-enabled head units. It was merely a toggle and notification that it would be available \u2013 while also having the old Meet logo intact.<\/p>\n

It looks like the actual rollout has begun in earnest, as the in-car entertainment OS is now showing notifications and allowing users to use the conference-calling system in their vehicles. As of June 4, we have seen a notification when logging in to the in-car dashboard with a couple of test devices informing that \u201cMeet is available\u201d and we are able to log in.<\/p>\n

There is a slight caveat to get this working on your first run of the application. When launching for the first time, you\u2019ll need to open and restart the Google Meet app on your device before it works seamlessly with Android Auto.<\/p>\n

In our own testing, there was no such warning about limited access for Workspace accounts. The onboarding process was very streamlined, requiring the on-device app restart, then launching into a somewhat familiar contact and call list UI.<\/p>\n

There is a tab for \u201cScheduled\u201d calls or meetings and a \u201cHistory\u201d tab where you can call any previously called contacts. Tapping just initiates a call, and Android Auto handles Google Meet like a regular phone application. You won\u2019t get video feedback or video feeds. <\/p>\n

When a call starts, your phone reverts to \u201cOn-the-go\u201d mode, which limits certain options, disables the camera, and streamlines the interface to eliminate distractions. Your car interface loses the raise hand feature, but you can still mute, connect…<\/p>\n
