In the latest Android Auto beta (9.0), you can now change the default layout to put navigation or media closer to the driver. Before this, you’d have to start AA and then tap on the media card to switch its position, but this changes the default startup split-screen layout. You can also change this setting from within Android Auto’s head unit UI.
Some users are reporting that Google Play is telling them that “recent data from similar devices show that this app may stop working on your device.” This seems like a neat feature of Google Play. If an app is having a bunch of crashes and ANRs on particular device models, it would be useful to let other users of that same device model know ahead of time to perhaps wait for an update.
We haven’t seen this before, so we think it could be relatively new. Correct me if this has been around for a long time and we just missed it. All the mentions of it I’ve found are recent, with the earliest being in October.
