It’s only been a couple of months since Android 12L was made available for Android Automotive devices, but considering it’s no longer the new kid on the block, it’s time for another release. Google has released the latest patch notes for its car-powering OS, and while they might not look exciting on paper, it shows some real commitment on the company’s part to keep automakers and drivers alike satisfied.<\/p>\n

Mishaal Rahman at Esper.io spotted the release notes for Android Auto 13 this morning. Unlike Android 12L for cars \u2014 which included, among other things, a new quick controls feature for quickly toggling various options \u2014 Android 13 is focused on technical, behind-the-scenes changes. If you’re an Android Automotive user hoping for a slate of new features, you’ll likely be disappointed. That said, considering Google’s platform is built for automakers to customize specifically for each model, user-facing features will always be few and far between.<\/p>\n

Although there aren’t a ton of changes here to write home about, there are a few worth highlighting. Several connectivity changes \u2014 including support for ultra-wideband and Gabeldorsche, a new version of Android’s Bluetooth stack that is active up to the scanning level \u2014 made the cut. Android 12’s Privacy Dashboard has made its way to cars with this release, delivering a list of sensors used by the vehicle. Google also added some new vehicle properties, including fog lights, EV charging, and more. Here’s the complete list of changes:<\/p>\n
