The best Android Auto apps for on the go

, 4 min read

1. Android Auto Google Maps 

It probably won't surprise you, but at number 1 is, of course, one of the best navigation applications ever: Google Maps. Google Maps is not only incredibly popular, but the user-friendliness of this application is also fantastic. It works very simply, and you can use Google Assistant to request directions. Do you want to go to the nearest gas station, for example? 'Hey Google, navigate to gas station'. Android Auto Google Maps then immediately calculates the route, and you can very easily drive to the nearest gas station. How cool is that? 

2. Android Auto Spotify 

Navigating is all well and good, of course, but let's be honest... a car ride without music is just nothing, right? Or let's put it another way: a car ride without your own music is just nothing, right? That's why, fortunately, you can Android Auto very easily play your own favorite songs. Our favorite music app is Android Auto Spotify, but of course it depends entirely on which app you normally use to play music. In any case, we absolutely love Spotify, because you can very easily play all your playlists and saved albums here. You simply browse through different music genres or choose specific music from a certain time period. This makes your long car ride a lot more enjoyable! 

3. Navigate with Waze

This is a Android Auto app that has become incredibly popular in recent years. More and more people are using Waze. With Waze, you not only navigate very easily from A to B, but you also receive a wealth of extra traffic information. This is all provided by other Waze users. By using Waze, you therefore know exactly where it is busy and which roads are best avoided. 

Oh right... it's also nice to mention. With Waze, you can also simply use Google Assistant. 

4. Chatting with WhatsApp Android Auto 

This naturally depends on which application you use to chat with family, friends, and colleagues, but the most widely used is of course WhatsApp. The features of WhatsApp Android Auto are, of course, limited. This is primarily related to road safety. After all, it is not intended that you type messages or read conversations while driving. Therefore, you have the option to use Android Auto to play incoming messages. You can very easily send a reply using Google Assistant. Play the incoming message, tap the microphone icon, and speak your answer. It hardly gets any simpler, right? 

5. TuneIn Radio 

It is, of course, incredibly nice to play your own playlists on Spotify, but sometimes you just don't know what to listen to anymore. In that case, it is naturally very nice to be able to listen to good old-fashioned radio. Don't you have one yourself yet? DAB receiver in your car? Then the TuneIn Radio app is, of course, incredibly handy. This is an internet radio where you can very easily select specific stations. TuneIn does a good job of recommending these interesting stations to users. 

6. Sygic Android Auto 

Would you actually prefer to simply navigate without an internet connection? Then use Sygic. This way, you can download maps of virtually any country to your phone, including 3D maps. These are updated several times a year.What makes this app so great is the fact that it focuses on guiding users, both in the car and on foot. You are presented with a route, and even offline, you still see lane guidance on the highway. Ideal! 

7. No more fines with Flitsmeister

The name of this app says it all: this app warns users about speed cameras. Over the years, the service has transformed into a fully-fledged navigation app where traffic warnings take center stage. 

Drivers on the app report speed cameras, traffic jams, and accidents, so you know exactly where you stand immediately. These notifications naturally also appear in Android Auto in focus. Flitsmeister also communicates with smart traffic lights, allowing you to Android Auto sees whether a traffic light is red or green. Handy when you can't see the light at that one annoying traffic light because of your own car roof, or if there is a truck in front of you.

As you probably already know, there are hundreds of applications that make your driving experience easier. Android Auto Makes driving not only a lot more fun, but also a lot safer! Very easy navigation, looking up routes, listening to music, and sending messages while simply keeping your hands on the wheel.
