Android Auto 13.9 Update Overview
Release Date: February 28, 2025
Google has rolled out a new update for Android Auto, version 13.9, just days after the release of version 13.8. This quick follow-up is unusual, as Google typically updates the app on a monthly schedule.
Key Changes:
- Language Updates: The update primarily focuses on refining the language used throughout the app. For instance, references to 'car' have been changed to 'vehicle.' This change is part of a broader effort that began with version 13.5 earlier this year. Examples include:
- Changed from: 'Android Auto will resume when your car’s parked.' To: 'Android Auto will resume when your vehicle’s parked.'
- Changed from: 'To start, select Android Auto on your car screen.' To: 'To start, select Android Auto on your vehicle screen.'
- Potential Bug Fixes: While the update does not introduce any major new features, it is expected to include various bug fixes. Specifically, there are hopes that it addresses ongoing wireless connection issues.
Rollout:
- The update is now rolling out but may take some time to reach all users.
This update continues Google's commitment to refining and improving the Android Auto experience, albeit with minor changes this time around.
