In a nutshell, most cars manufactured within the last few years support both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Typically, you connect your compatible phone to the car’s in-dash infotainment system. It then mirrors your phone’s GPS navigation, entertainment apps, and more. The head unit just serves as a touch-capable display.
If you own a device with Android 9 Pie or later, you have to download and install the Android Auto app from Google Play. Android Auto is built into Android 10 and newer.
Most cars that support Android Auto require a physical USB tether to the in-dash infotainment center. More recent vehicles might support Android Auto wirelessly, in which case, you only need the USB tether for the initial setup. After that, your phone communicates to the in-dash head via Wi-Fi.
Wireless Android Auto is supported on any phone running Android 11 or newer with 5GHz Wi-Fi built-in. The following phones support wireless Android Auto running Android 10 or newer:
Google: Pixel/XL Pixel2/2 XL Pixel 3/3 XL Pixel 4/4 XL Nexus 5X Nexus 6P Samsung: Galaxy S8/S8+ Galaxy S9/S9+ Galaxy S10/S10+ Galaxy Note 8 Galaxy Note 9 Galaxy Note 10
