Android Auto has embarked on a journey of refinement, addressing several issues that users have encountered in recent weeks. Among the notable fixes are solutions to persistent Wi-Fi error messages and audio stuttering, which have been a source of frustration for many. This rollout, which began over the past couple of weeks, encourages users to ensure they are operating on the latest version, Android Auto v13.3, to benefit from these enhancements.
In addition to these improvements, the company is actively investigating current issues reported by users of the latest Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro XL models. For instance, a Pixel 9 Pro XL user noted a complete absence of audio during music streaming via Android Auto following the installation of the December 2024 Android 15 feature drop. Similarly, another Pixel 9 user experienced challenges during calls, managing to make and receive them but unable to hear any audio. Furthermore, a Xiaomi 14T user reported malfunctions with Android Auto post-update to Android 15-based Hyper OS 2.0.
The Android Auto support team has reassured users that these bugs are being addressed and fixes are anticipated to roll out in the coming weeks or months. In parallel, the platform is also exploring the introduction of radio station features, with hints of this functionality appearing in the latest beta version. Users have spotted categories and music genres of radio stations lurking within the app’s backend, suggesting exciting developments on the horizon.
