Recent AA App Update

[Victor Howard]

WHAT'S NEW
- Improved phone-car connection reliability
- Ability to browse your music collection without lockouts while vehicle is stopped
- Android Auto now available in 19 more countries

Any feedback?

I haven't had any connectivity issues (5X and 8100NEX),but I can tell you that the music browsing still doesn't work. I get a message that says my car needs to be in Park for additional browsing, but I drive a manual, so there is no Park. Just the hand brake. Even when that's on, it doesn't change anything. Still no browse by artist.

One thing I did notice was that Google Maps navigation said "Welcome to Maryland" when I crossed the border last night. That was cute. I'd rather have a fully functional music player.

I havnt notced anything. Voice commands still don't work for music playback. So I'm still waiting for...I guess another update? Sadly it looks like AA deosnt see updates very often (previous version was December, we had to wait nearly 4 months for this) so it might be a while.

Voice commands still don't work for music playback.

I can't say "play music" but if I specify "play radiohead" or "play car music playlist" it works fine for me.

hrmmmm, that's odd, I can say "play some music" it will shuffle all the music I have on my phone, Sprint S7 edge on Pioneer 8100nex

Generic commands like play mettalica works. But playlist? I always get "sorry don't know how to help with that". What's odd is if I try exact same command via Google now while not connected to AA it works flawlessly every time.
