Different look and feel
Google uses Android for Cars App Library templates to ensure that all Android Auto™ apps have a similar look and feel, and screen elements that are familiar to the user. The TomTom GO Navigation app has been adapted to use these templates so that it can be made available via Android Auto™.
Note the following restrictions:
- The number of results we show for Search, Favourites and More recents is limited to 6. This is due to safety reasons to avoid scrolling while driving.
- The number of menu items is limited so we need to pick the most used menu items.
- Changing settings or using deeper level menu items is not allowed.
- Map interaction is limited while driving.
GPS
The GPS of the phone is used to track your vehicle as you drive. If you experience issues with your location as you drive, try placing your phone somewhere that allows it a good view of the sky.
Setup
You can set up Android Auto™ with your phone either via Bluetooth® or a wired USB connection.
