Android Auto
Vehicle phone integration
Android Auto is Google's platform for using smartphone apps through a car's dashboard display.
It mirrors navigation, music, messaging, and other compatible apps, designed for hands-free or simplified control while driving: My car supports Android Auto, so I just plug in my phone.
The system competes with Apple's CarPlay.
