Google has released an update for its Android Auto.
According to the Engadget, Google has made some changes to the Android Auto home screen to show ongoing activities like music and navigation at a glance.
The users can now access music playback controls directly from the home screen. Earlier, the users could see name of the song which was playing but needed to go to another screen to pause it.
Also, Navigation is expanded on the home screen to show turning directions without forcing users over to the main app.
In addition, there is a new home screen background, larger playback controls, slight changes to the color scheme and slight changes to scrolling.
The new version 1.2 is now available on Google Play Store.
