Android Auto with dark theme

A new update is being rolled out for Android Auto. Several improvements and optimizations have been made in recent times, and now it’s time for the next improvement. Google is adding a dark theme to Android Auto.

In the new version of Android Auto, users will get a switch to activate the dark mode. Ideal if you don’t want to be dazzled by the infotainment system’s screen while driving in the dark. The feature is a long-held wish of Android Auto users. Particularly useful in cars, for example due to the lack of a dimming sensor, which do not automatically switch to a lower brightness.
