This mode will be launched in other parts of the world as well. In the new driving mode, the Android Auto is combined with Google Maps with basic emphasis on Google Assistant. Just before starting the navigation, a user will get a notification in Google Maps on an add-on bar at the bottom of the navigation window. As far as the new addition is concerned, a shortcut for Google assistant is also introduced, placed in the lower-left corner whereas a new shortcut appears on the bottom right corner. With the new update, Musci controls are also simplified. A new skip button is added to skip any song that you dislike. Moreover, this mode will appear automatically by default as soon as a user starts navigating. There is also a Do Not Disturb mode like Android Auto that will appear automatically so that you can receive messages from the app directly, however, can reply to all of them by voice while driving. Right now this new driving mode is rolling out to all Android users residing in the US. Let’s see when iOS users will get it. Also Read: Google is re-adding a Calendar App to Android Auto
