There have been significant changes to Google’s Android Auto, where features such as Split-Screen, also known as CoolWalk, are being rolled out. In addition, the application offers several different layouts, such as split-screen and additional display information. Google has successfully rolled out a stable update after successful beta testing, and now Waze is testing its compatibility with the latest Android Auto update.
As of now, it is in beta testing, which shouldn’t come as any surprise since Waze is owned by the company. Waze was acquired by Google 10 years ago, and now Google is combining the Waze and Google Maps teams to streamline the user experience and improve functionality.
While Google announced its redesigned Android Auto experience earlier this month and has yet to update the app globally, a giant vacuum is still left. There may be a few more weeks or months before everyone receives the updates. The company should have provided a timeline or explained why they have yet to reach global users.
We advise users to wait for the Android Auto update instead of sideloading. To find out more about the Android Update, check this out. If you wish to try the update as early as possible, join the Android Auto Beta programme here. As a result, you begin receiving the most recent beta updates. The latest beta for Waze doesn’t include all capabilities at this point, but it should follow the Android Auto design and mapping. It could be a short-term issue, and maybe with the next update, more and more features will be added to Waze.
