Scott Brown \/ Android Authority<\/p>\n<p>TL;DR<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Android Auto users are experiencing an issue with Gemini.<\/li>\n<li>When trying to make a call through Gemini, an error message pops up.<\/li>\n<li>The issue is causing some to switch back to Google Assistant<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Last week, Gemini went down for the count, as a partial outage left Google\u2019s AI platform serving up error messages. While that issue has since been resolved, a new problem appears to have popped up over the weekend. Gemini appears to be acting up on Android Auto, preventing users from making calls.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[preferred_source_box]<\/p>\n<p>According to dozens of Android Auto users, Gemini has lost its ability to make calls. When attempting to make a call through Gemini, these users are instead getting a pop-up that reads, \u201cSomething went wrong. Please try again.\u201d Typical troubleshooting measures, such as clearing app data or resetting the car\u2019s infotainment system, don\u2019t appear to be working.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of this issue, some users are switching back to Google Assistant. It appears that switching back to Assistant has been a viable workaround for those who made the decision to do so. While it\u2019s not recommended, others have found that uninstalling the last update can also restore calling functionality.<\/p>\n<p>Android Authority has reached out to Google for comment.
