When is the next update expected to support Android Auto? Really looking forward to that feature.

The Android Auto feature is dependent on Google allowing developers to release apps with their new development kit software that is currently in beta. And then they must approve of Geooh using it. I'm hoping by mid-summer at the latest for all this to get finalized.

I planning on version 12 having the feature, but 12 is dependent on some other components that Google hasn't released yet. Hopefully around November I can push 12 out.

Hi,
I don’t have Android auto yet (car is ordered), but what can I expect?
Can I run Geooh go straight from AA and can I launch navigation within GG? If so, is it possible to launch Waze in AA then?
Thx for the info

Both Google and Apple severely limit what can be done on Android Auto and CarPlay displays. Developers can't do maps or overlays or anything advanced. Geooh's implementation will show up to 6 nearby caches... similar to what shows on the phone notification. There is a video on the Geooh website showing it in action.

A word of caution... Google has been fusing that Geooh's implementation doesn't match their idea of "parking" apps (even though they originally approved it for production release). So it may go away someday, if they require me to remove the the feature.

Android Auto support is now available in version 13 of the app.
