    Android Auto may soon let you spend less time scrolling, more time driving (APK teardown)

    • Your in-car Android Auto screen could soon display more app columns, making app discovery easier and faster.
    • We were able to surface up to seven app columns in a layout that previously supported a maximum of five columns.
    • The number of app columns you see on your Android Auto screen will depend on the size of your in-car display.




    Android Auto’s app drawer can sometimes seem a bit cramped. Depending on your car’s display size, you’ll typically see four or five app columns in the app drawer. That means if you’ve got lots of Android Auto apps installed, finding a specific app would often involve scrolling through multiple pages, which is not ideal when you’re trying to focus on the road. It’s just natural that the more apps that are displayed at a glance on the screen, the less time you have to spend scrolling to find an app. Looks like Google knows this all too well and is working on a change that will help reduce the hunt for apps on your car screen.
