Android for Cars lets you design map-centered navigation experiences that
incorporate both the center screen and the instrument cluster in the driver’s
journey.
The templates in the Android for Cars App Library are driving-optimized and
include key navigation-focused features. Such features include: place lists,
route previews, travel estimate cards, routing cards, navigation alerts, map
interactivity, and cluster integration. The apps you design with these templates
can work for both Android Auto and AAOS.
In the Navigation category, your app draws its own map for greater control over
the experience.
