It&#8217;s not quite as polished as     <span class=\"display-card-hyperlink-article\" data-id=\"207602\">Apple CarPlay<\/span>, though, so it&#8217;s not uncommon for people to run into issues that make it a little more troublesome than it should be. Hopefully, the gap will continue to narrow in coming years.    <\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, you can solve some of Android Auto&#8217;s current issues with a few settings tweaks. I&#8217;d strongly recommend trying some or all of these before you hit the road &#8212; there&#8217;s no sense driving with a suboptimal experience, especially if you&#8217;ve spent upwards of $1,000 on a new flagship phone from Google or Samsung.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pocket-lint.com\/android-auto-settings-you-didnt-know-you-needed-to-change\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>6 Android Auto settings you didn&#8217;t know you needed to change https:\/\/www.pocket-lint.com\/android-auto-settings-you-didnt-know-you-needed-to-change\/ Publish Date: 2026-06-12&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":271256,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/static0.pocketlintimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/wm\/2025\/02\/6-android-auto-settings.jpg?w=1600&h=900&fit=crop","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[70,86],"class_list":["post-271255","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-android","tag-google","tag-samsung"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/271255"}],"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=271255"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/271255\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":271257,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/271255\/revisions\/271257"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/271256"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=271255"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=271255"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=271255"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
