Now, the company is rolling it out more widely, so it should be available to everyone soon enough.<\/p>\n<p>9to5Google reports that Google has started rolling out Meet for Android Auto to all users now. That means you will be able to join scheduled calls in Google Meet while you\u2019re driving. For safety, the app offers a stripped-down version in the car to let you take calls without being distracted by the screen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_Ph\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"9.375rem\" title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png 676w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x-64w-20h.png 64w\" alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_Ph\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"9.375rem\" title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png 676w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x-64w-20h.png 64w\" alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no video support, and your phone\u2019s camera will stay off while you\u2019re taking Meet calls in the car. It\u2019s basically the same UI used for regular phone calls in Android Auto: you get the option to mute or unmute the call, and you can exit the meeting.<\/p>\n<p>The interface is straightforward. Open the Meet app from the Android Auto dashboard and you\u2019re greeted with any scheduled calls on the agenda.

The app only lets you join scheduled meetings or answer a call if someone else tries to contact you on Meet while you\u2019re driving.<\/p>\n<p>Google has also added several other restrictions for safety. Since your phone and car both connect to the Meet call, your Android phone will enter \u201cOn-the-Go\u201d mode and display a simplified UI during Meet calls. Features like Hand Raise, Q&#038;A, and Polls are also unavailable.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you absolutely must use a feature that\u2019s unavailable in the car interface, Google suggests you stop driving and use the Meet app on your&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/google-meet-android-auto-wider-rollout-3674819\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google Meet for Android Auto is rolling out widely now https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/google-meet-android-auto-wider-rollout-3674819\/ Publish Date: 2026-06-05 03:56:00&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":264643,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/android-auto-dashboard-with-google-meet-icon-hero-image-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[70],"class_list":["post-264641","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-android","tag-google"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/264641"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=264641"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/264641\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":264645,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/264641\/revisions\/264645"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/264643"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=264641"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=264641"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=264641"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
