A lot of things revolve the driver's mind while he is driving a car. He always thinks about the next destination, playing the right music or even answering a few important calls. To resolve this problem, tech giant Google has first introduced Android Auto for the car. This technology was introduced to give the driver a hassle-free and much safer driving experience. Android Auto now supports more than 500 different car models from over 50 different brands.

After performing exceptionally well in the internet and smartphone industry, Android Auto has been ruling the automobile segment for the past five years.  On the other hand,  Apple CarPlay uses Siri voice recognition system to make driving safer and, it also makes the communication process much easier. As a result, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are always in competition against each other to be the best automobile connectivity software. Recently, Google introduced the new upgraded design for Android Auto, which is set to roll out on all compatible cars and will be available in the market by the end of this month. This new update of Android Auto is built to help you get on the road faster, show more beneficial information and simplify common tasks while driving.
