Music Questions

[matt3166]

Just a couple questions about listening to Play Music.

1. Is there a way for the unit to just show music/playlists download? Not everything I have on the service.

2. I'm thinking its a safety feature so you can't scroll through music while driving but not all my music seems to load on my unit. I'll scroll down and it will stop mid way through my music and the only way to continue is to select the song it stopped on, then go back and continue to scroll and it will do this again and again till I get to the bottom.

Google IO video said that Android Auto imposes a "6 press" maximum rule. That's the maximum distraction level they set.

Hit the maximum and further touch inputs get disabled for a while.

Apps are supposed to somehow flatten (or truncate) any hierarchies to stay within this.

Makes sense. I must have missed that part of the video. Thank you

Makes sense once we know, but I don't recall see it documented anywhere, and frustrating when it happens.

It was a short 6 minute video about designing apps for cars.
