    Android Auto Will Not Connect to Car

    Android Auto Will Not Connect to Car

    Coming back to this after almost a year — the problem where Android Auto cannot connect has happened to me 3 times. Each time, I spent roughly an hour trying everything I could think of to force the connection to happen, and each time I failed to make it happen. But then some good news — I think...

    Android Auto Will Not Connect to Car

    And then, without an explanation that I can figure out, Android Auto in my car connects to the phone, and works properly! I'm pretty sure these are not the explanation: The version of Android Auto in my phone did not change, it's the same as when I started this thread The Infotainment System...

    Come on, help us all out, be specific. What is the update? Give us the version number. Tell us where you go it from. (And who is rolling out an update? Is it an update for your phone, or for your car's Android Auto?)

    Thank you, Mustang. I have tried to install a number of earlier versions, but each time the install fails. :(

    Android Auto Will Not Connect to Car

    Does anyone know how I can install an earlier version of Android Auto. The play store has 7.8.622514, which is what I have installed, I'd like to go back to something earlier and try that.

    So, having uninstalled Samsung Smart Things, I went out to the car, and ... DRUMROLL PLEASE!!!! Android Auto still doesn't work.

    That link indicates that uninstalling Samsung Smart Things might fix the problem. I have done the un-install, but haven't been in my car yet. Keeping my fingers crossed ...

    Android Auto Will Not Connect to Car

    Thanks. But your link doesn't work. After some searching, I found this: https://www.androidpolice.com/google-samsung-galaxy-s22-android-auto-fix/, which is an article from three days ago (8/18/2022) which states that Android Auto 7.7 should fix the problem. The Play Store has available for...

    Android Auto Will Not Connect to Car

    I bought a new Samsung Galaxy S22 (Android 12) in March 2022, and up until a few days ago (third week of August 2022), Android Auto started right up when I connected the phone to the car via USB. It worked perfectly. And then a few days ago, I could not get Android Auto to connect to my car...

    S22/Android 12/Android Auto

    Follow-up: I have purchased a Samsung Galaxy S22, and just like you guys said, Android Auto works perfectly well. Thanks for the encouragement and advice. I note that Android Auto does not appear as an app in my App Drawer (is that the correct name for it?) but if I type Android Auto into the...
