TL;DR
  • A future update to Android Auto will allow users to swipe and cycle through multiple media cards on the dashboard.
  • The new feature will eliminate the need to reopen previously used music or audio apps when switching.
  • This multi-card interface would streamline use for people who frequently toggle between different audio sources.
Android Auto is currently in a good state of utility, but that’s no reason to slack off. Google has been working on several new features for the platform, including the recently announced Call screening and Call Notes functionality, as well as the upcoming home screen widgets. There’s more on the way, too. With Android Auto v15.6.154404 beta, we’ve identified code that suggests Android Auto may soon make it easier to switch between different music apps.

Currently, Android Auto displays a music card on the dashboard whenever music is playing in any music app. For instance, say your music app of choice is Spotify, and you begin playing music on Android Auto. You can control Spotify music through this music card, but if you want to access a different music app, such as YouTube Music, you will need to open YouTube Music and play something. When you do so, the Spotify music card on the dashboard will be replaced by the YouTube Music music card.
