The replace does not deliver massive performance modifications, nevertheless it does include fairly a notable user-facing transformation. Android Auto is now that includes Materials You design components, and the brand new colourful accents present up all through the UI to match what’s in your telephone.
Modifications in accent colours have been seen in numerous system components with Android Auto 13.4. These components embrace buttons, toggles, and even background colours of playing cards and menus. The Materials You design language was current (in a really restricted capability) already inside music apps, for instance, the place their UI components had been altering to match album artwork.
Locations the place you possibly can see the brand new colours embrace the Settings menu, notifications, and the notification middle. It’s worthwhile to have the setting for matching your telephone’s wallpaper turned on to see attention-grabbing colours although.
At this level, it appears that evidently the transformation hasn’t been completed and appears to not be working at its greatest. Once you change the colours in your telephone, for instance, it will not at all times routinely replace the colours on Android Auto. Typically, it is advisable to force-stop the Android Auto app and reconnect, and generally, the colours will not change in any respect.
It looks as if Google might be refining this over time to make it higher mirror the customizable Materials You design language. Regardless of that although, I discover this transformation very handsome. In any case, Android Auto is an app that permits you to see your telephone’s apps in your automobile, and it makes quite a lot of sense if the seems to be of your telephone UI are additionally mirrored in your automobile’s dashboard. Hopefully, Google might be fast to refine issues so these change once you replace your telephone’s colours as nicely.
