After years of waiting and constant changes in the development of the new interface, Android Auto has released Coolwalk in stable version and for all users. Well, not everyone, which is currently only available to a very specific group. Do you want to be one of them?
Few hidden secrets were more desirable than the new Android Auto interface, called Coolwalk. Designed to best fit any aspect ratio and screen resolution, and featuring dual-window operation with shortcuts in the side or bottom area, Coolwalk is an improvement over Android Auto that's especially appreciated on larger panels. Fortunately, you are no longer restricted to application code.
Android Auto Coolwalk for beta users
As we said, he is waiting and we already have him officially among us. Of course, for now with nuances: although it is no longer necessary be ROOT and playing with the code to activate Coolwalk, Google continues to restrict the interface to the majority audience. I.e, only those who are enrolled in the beta of Android Auto have the news available .
Google recently opened the Android Auto beta so that users had the option to try out Coolwak in advance. The problem is that the Said beta is often completed very quickly ; which prevents access to the new interface, at least for now.
Here's the bad news: the only way to get the Coolwalk into the car without worrying about the code is have beta access . To obtain it, you must follow the following process:
- Visit this link and check if the beta has free slots.
- If Google has enabled more space, click the ” Become a tester “.
- You're already inside the Android Auto beta: update the app on your phone.
- Restart the phone after installing the update and connect it to the car: the Coolwalk interface should now appear . If not, restart again.
- In case you haven't joined the beta, try clear storage of the Android Auto and Google Play Services apps. Reboot and see if Coolwalk appears - there are times when you don't need to be a beta.
Coolwalk requires a beta user, but not for long: Google will definitely enable Coolwalk for everyone in upcoming stable releases . After years of hiding, the interface is ready.
