What’s new in Android Auto 8.9<\/h2>\n

Android Auto 8.9 comes mainly with new features in its\u00a0\u00a0interface<\/strong>\u00a0.\u00a0The company continues to move forward to bring\u00a0\u00a0Coolwalk\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0to everyone, a new redesign that seems almost essential at this stage of the game.\u00a0Among others, we will be able to use a split screen and a light mode, something that many users demanded because, although the dark mode prevents glare at night, during the day the light mode is more attractive to many people.<\/p>\n

We also found\u00a0\u00a0bug fixes and other optimizations<\/strong>\u00a0that, even if you don’t see them with the naked eye, are there to improve the performance of your device.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Where and how to download this new update<\/h2>\n

There are already users using this version, thanks to the beta that was announced a few weeks ago.\u00a0Now, it reaches\u00a0\u00a0all users<\/strong>\u00a0in a stable way.\u00a0If you want to download Android Auto 8.9, you will find it in the\u00a0\u00a0Google Play Store<\/strong>\u00a0.\u00a0You can access it from the\u00a0\u00a0Manage apps and device<\/strong>\u00a0menu , where you can check for pending updates to this or other apps.\u00a0In the event that nothing appears, you can search for it manually, locating in the Android Auto application store and clicking on Update.<\/p>\n

Remember to always keep your applications updated to the latest version.\u00a0Not only will it make you enjoy them more since you will always have the news in your hand, in addition, you will also have greater guarantees, since among the news we can find solutions to certain errors and we will “shield” ourselves against possible security problems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
