Make long drives easier with this Android Auto feature

Android Auto now uses Google’s Gemini AI assistant, replacing the previous assistant. Gemini lets drivers ask natural questions about navigation, nearby restaurants, parking, and reviews, and it can summarize group-chat notifications, draft replies, and translate messages into over 40 languages. The assistant also controls music playback with vague prompts, accesses Gmail, Calendar, and notes, and can read schedules or email instructions while the driver stays hands-free.
