Android Auto’s latest beta brings full Android game support

Google has added gaming support to the beta version of Android Auto 14.1, allowing users to play select Android games on their car's touchscreen while parked. Currently, only four games are supported, including Candy Crush, Angry Birds, Farm Heroes Saga, and Beach Buggy Racing. The games must be installed on the user's phone beforehand and can only be accessed when the car is stationary for safety reasons. This update also introduces fullscreen apps to Android Auto, bringing it closer to the software experience in cars with Google built-in. The feature was announced earlier this month as part of Google's March feature drop, but the official release date out of beta has not been specified.
