A little earlier than we expected, Google has already launched Android Auto 12.0 beta, less than a week after the previous stable version 11.9. Those who are part of the Android Auto beta program on Google Play will be able to update to the new version automatically. The rest will always have the APKs.
As usual, We have tested Android Auto 12.0 beta, with special depth as it is a digit change. Once again, Google doesn’t seem to care too much about the numbering change and we have come across a similar story to previous updates.
Android Auto 12.0 arrives
It seems like yesterday when we celebrated the launch of Android Auto 11.0, in December of last year, and We have already reached Android Auto 12.0. At least, in its beta phase. It is expected that in a few days it will become a stable version.
We have tested Android Auto 12.0 beta in search of new features, but we have again encountered a story similar to past updates. There does not seem to be any visible change in the in-car or mobile application, in the settings or in applications closely integrated into the system, such as Google Maps.
Android Auto 12.0 beta remains the same on the surface, although this does not mean that there are no changes. In fact, we have recently known errors such as “the phone is hot”, whose solution could be found in this update. We cannot be sure, since Google has not updated The list of known Android Auto errors Since last month.
This means that the new features that we knew in the past and are still pending, such as choosing which application opens at startup or support for Zoom, remain without reaching the masses, for now.
If you want to try Android Auto 12.0 beta on your mobile now, you will be automatically updated if you are part of the beta program. If you are not in the beta program, you can download Android Auto 12.0 beta APK from APKMirror.
