Following the wide rollout of Android Auto 14.4 earlier this month, Google has made Android Auto 14.5 more broadly available while also testing not one, but two new versions in beta.
Android Auto 14.5 is a wholly unremarkable update for the most part. There are no new features available and any bug fixes contained within seem to serve niche cases. Google doesn’t deliver proper changelogs for these app updates beyond “bug fixes,” so we can only speculate as to what is contained within.
If you have been running into any issues with Android Auto as of late, though, you’ll certainly want to update to this newest version via the Play Store.
What’s a bit more interesting at the moment is that Google currently has two other Android Auto updates rolling out in beta. Android Auto 14.6 started rolling out via the beta program early last week, and Android Auto 14.7 made its debut just a few days later, having now broadly rolled out to beta testers. There are no notable changes behind the scenes in v14.6, but v14.7 delivers some of the final preparations for the platform’s new light theme.
Google has already started a slow rollout for v14.6 via the stable channel, but not all users are seeing it just yet. With the release of v14.7 already in beta, though, it’s very likely that Android Auto 14.6 is set for a wider release in the coming days.
For the time being, none of these updates deliver Gemini support, which is supposed to be coming soon.
