    Android Auto

    + +

    GrapheneOS provides an option to install and use the official releases of + Android Auto.

    + +

    Android Auto requires privileged access in order to work. GrapheneOS uses + an extension of the sandboxed Google Play compatibility layer to make Android + Auto work with a reduced level of privileges.

    + +

    To install Android Auto, use our app repository client ("Apps"). Android Auto + can't be installed through the Play Store or other app sources. Android Auto + depends on sandboxed Google Play, you'll be prompted to install it if it's not + already installed.

    + +

    After installation, Android Auto has to be set up from the "Settings ➔ Apps ➔ + Sandboxed Google Play ➔ Android Auto" configuration screen, which contains + permission toggles, links to related configuration screens, configuration tips, and + links to optional Android Auto dependencies.

    + +

    The permission toggles ask for a confirmation before turning on. The + confirmation popup explains what access each permission toggle provides.

    + +

    By default, Android Auto is not granted any kind of privileged access. It's + treated the same way other apps are treated.

    + +

    In order to work, Android Auto has to be granted baseline permissions for wired + or wireless Android Auto. Wired Android Auto requires far less access than wireless + Android Auto does. Baseline permissions are controlled by the "Allow permissions + for wired / wireless Android Auto" toggles.

    + +

    For some cars, baseline permissions for wireless Android Auto are needed even + when using wired Android Auto. Therefore, if wired Android Auto is unable to + connect to the car with only wired permissions granted, try granting wireless + permissions instead.

    + +

    To forward notifications from the device to the car, Android Auto has to be + allowed notification access. The notification access settings are linked below the + permission toggles.

    + +

    In order to show up in the Android Auto car interface, apps have to be installed + from the Play Store and include Android Auto support.

    + +

    See Google's + Android Auto Help pages for further Android Auto setup steps and usage + instructions.
