Improving Android Auto

[eric002]

Two things that I'd like to see improved in Android auto... 1. when you're stopped, you can see the message content. We should also be able to see picture messages. 2. when verbally speaking messages, there should be no limit as to how long Google assistant can record your message for.

I think my car allows me to view content but not because of AA. I don't need to see images when stopped but if it can be deployed without safety compromises I'm OK with it. Personally, even when stopped at a light people can get easily distracted. As for the dictation limit I never noticed it.

Yeah true then I guess I can understand what you're talking about. I figured if it's safe to see the contents of a message at a stoplight, then why not pictures. Lol. If I start talking a long long message, Google Assistant will cut off.

1. Doesn't sound safe at all.

I agree. What if one looks at the images too long and doesn't notice that the light turned green?

True. I hadn't thought of that. I was thinking for a quick second at a stop light. But you are right. Thanks for mentioning that. As far as a voice dictation line. I have noticed for Google Assistant in the car with the newest Google application update in the play store, Google Assistant got way more reliable for Android Auto. I'm not sure if anyone noticed that. The length of voice dictation in the car maybe I'm just pushing it and expecting a lot out of it, and if so then I'll hush up lol but if you speak a few sentences sometimes it doesn't catch a last sentence basically. But yeah, other than that, it's perfect.
