2019: Google has opened the opportunity to develop third-party applications
In early May 2019, Google opened the Android Automotive OS operating system for third-party application developers. This happened more than two years after the announcement of a platform designed to work in cars.
In February 2019, Polestar, which is separated from Volvo, introduced the first car using Android Automotive OS. There was a video showing both this car and its infotainment system based on Android Automotive.
Google has implemented support for third-party multimedia applications - for listening to music, podcasts and other content that is interesting to the driver. Subsequently, the company intends to allow developers to create navigation applications (maps), communication (calls, messages) and others. Android Automotive OS apps will be available through the Google Play Store.
For the convenience of developers and users, the new Google operating system is based on the already existing Android Auto platform and therefore supports various screen sizes, input methods and regional recommendations for safe driving. Google wants to make building built-in applications for cars as simple and standardized as creating Android apps for many mobile devices.
At the Google I/O 2019 conference, the company will present a report for developers on how to create Android applications for cars. Experts will explain in detail how to create a multimedia application using Android Studio with an emulator and Android Automotive OS templates. Also, the Google team organizes reviews of ready-made applications, and for those who do not attend the conference, the Google Groups community is open for developers of Android Automotive OS applications.[1]
