Just as Android Auto will be getting used to the all-new interface that arrived with the much-delayed ‘Coolwalk’ revamp, Google is now rolling out another UI change.
Only this time the update refers to the Android app used to manage the settings of the Android Auto system. The change will see the app adopt Material You, which is the name of Google’s new design language for Android app interfaces.
Described as a unified design language, Material You first arrived with Android 12 and aims to brings elements of your phone’s wallpaper to the rest of the interface. Google describes the interface as “a more humanistic approach to design. One that celebrates the tension between design sustainability and personal preference, and does not shy away from emotion.”
For Android Auto, the update to Material You is seen in the settings pages, where users can connect a new car, enable or disable wireless Android Auto, and tweak functions like the ability to have music automatically start when you start driving.
