It’s not often that Google takes a total of 25 days to officially launch a new Android Auto update, but this time, that’s what’s happening with Android Auto 11.0. brings some aesthetic news We will tell you about this below.

But the most notable thing this update brings is that the APK text clearly states: This software is preparing to say goodbye to some mobile phones At least they do not include Android 8.0 Oreo, the bad news is that until now it was possible to continue using older versions, but everything indicates that this will no longer be the case.

These are all new features of Android Auto 11.0

In this case, the changes in this new version go beyond simple bug fixes, as Google is usually accustomed to. As we can see through our colleagues at Xataka Android, The design of system icons has completely changed It adopts an aesthetic very similar to what we can see on mobile.

This is what the new system icons in Android Auto 11.0 look like

These went on to make a presentation square design with rounded edgesbut for practical purposes it does not represent a relevant change when interacting with the system. For the rest, from what we saw in version 10.9, the interface seems to have been left intact, so we will not be able to enjoy other new features.

Of course, as we mentioned before, the APK text points to a rather striking statement that shows Google’s intentions regarding older mobile phones: “To continue using Android Auto, update your phone to the latest version of Android.” As you can see, this shows that if we have a mobile phone with versions earlier than Android 8.0 Oreo, we will very soon have to say goodbye to the possibility of continuing to use Android Auto.
