I've heard Android Auto Coolwalk (an update for Android Auto) is coming soon! Not sure on the devices it's compatible with but....make sure you're SUBSCRIBED so you don't miss out!


Thanks for watching and supporting the channel! 🙏🙏🙏

Just started as a product concierge at Mercedes Benz 2 weeks ago, hoping to get into sales. Your videos have helped tons with learning. Thanks Nick!

After getting my new car in October, AA is finally set up properly with voice commands now working. My local dealer was useless but watching this solved the problem. Many thanks. Look forward to the next video.

Brilliant and just what I needed!!! Thanks Nick. I had only the faintest idea of how to use Android Auto, but your video made it crystal clear!

[manclad]

I always use android auto as its more accurate than the built-in sat nav, I look forward 2 the new update. Thanks Nick

[Staeven]

Thanks for covering Android Auto Nick and good to hear you have your own Android phone now 😇
I look forward to more AA Tips & Tricks 🙂

Put Android Auto on my TT today via some SD cards. It has the cool walk. Nice and clear vid bro.

This is the overview of Android Auto I was looking for. Excellent rundown of features.

Great presentation, update since i last commented, i purchased AAWIRELESS device and omg what a difference android auto is. If you can get one Nick, do a video on this. Brilliant

[ianfawcett]

Android auto is brilliant on my '18 Civic. Use it for almost everything, still fiddling with waypoints but am setting these in G Maps on the Samsung A53 to see if the AA picks them up on my next trip. Great stream - thanks

How about the elephant in the room? Mercedes explicitly excluded the development of Android auto from the Ultra wide screens, leaving the horrible "Android Auto" black box empty. As a result, 1/3 of the screen is a black frame. It is a known issue and MB will just do nothing about it.

Thanks for the great info! I'm looking at purchasing my first EV and I thought I needed to research which vehicles use Google Maps natively to match my preferred GPS experience. Then I heard about Android Auto and decided to search for a video on it to determine if it could solve this problem and viola! I know that the Ioniq 6 that I'm considering does support wired Android Auto. Thanks again.

[laszlovizilo]

Thank you Nick. Great video as always.I was not disappointed.

[berniecruz]

Nick, you forgot to add to this video about the option of where people can just hold the speak button on the steering wheel down for a few seconds while in Android Auto and then they are able to give google verbal commands. FYI

*So good it can't freshen up one's drinks*

😂

Until Mercedes finally add widescreen support for Android Auto on MBUX first generation, its a really wasted feature. I even have the Coolwalk UI as I'm on the beta branch of Android Auto, and it looks kind of ridiculous.

[quoaitran]

Running youtube and AVs on Android auto while in D is the best to ever happen

[pauluk]

I only ever use Anker USB cables and 12 volt chargers. They're not cheap but really good quality products.

Android Auto/Apple CarPlay means your sat nav is always up to date. In built sat navs mean the maps are as old as the car or the last time you paid the manufacturer to update it.

Hey Nick! Love your videos! Just a quick question - do you know what certain specs will be missing in new cars due to the worldwide chip shortage? I've ordered a CLA 200 Shooting Brake with Premium Plus package but I'm worried I won't get all the specs listed by Mercedes. Thanks!
