Through their Android for Cars program, Google is adding popular streaming services like Max and Peacock, as well as the popular game Angry Birds, to cars with native Android software. In addition, Google is working on integrating the Uber app into Android Auto, allowing users to easily access the ride-sharing service while on the go. But it's not just about adding new apps. Google aims to enhance compatibility and safety by releasing new guidelines for developers to create car-ready apps that will work seamlessly on various screen sizes and shapes. With Android Auto compatible with over 200 million cars, there is a vast opportunity for app developers to tap into the automotive market. Google is also bringing the Google Cast feature to cars equipped with Android Automotive OS, enabling users to cast video content from their phones or tablets directly to the car's screen when parked. This enhances the entertainment options for passengers during their journeys. To further support app development for cars, Google is introducing new quality tiers and a Car ready mobile apps program. This program aims to accelerate app development by providing developers with the necessary tools and resources to create high-quality experiences in cars. Google plans to expand the program to include more app categories in the future. Overall, Google's efforts in expanding its Android software into cars not only offer users a wider range of entertainment options and convenience but also provide rewarding opportunities for developers to tap into the growing automotive market. Stay tuned for further updates on the latest apps and features coming to your car! ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Don’t just attend KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon, Merge Forward your experience\!](https://daily.dev/posts/don-t-just-attend-kubecon-cloudnativecon-merge-forward-your-experience--l0rpp73x8) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Announcing H2 2026 KCDs](https://daily.dev/posts/announcing-h2-2026-kcds-m96goajm1) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Two months of Open Community Groups](https://daily.dev/posts/two-months-of-open-community-groups-asf52zhbs) · CNCF · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [CNCF Unveils Schedule for KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon Europe 2026](https://daily.dev/posts/cncf-unveils-schedule-for-kubecon-cloudnativecon-europe-2026-ikhcoa5cb) · CNCF · 2 upvotes · 0 comments - [CNCF Debuts KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon Japan 2026 Schedule](https://daily.dev/posts/cncf-debuts-kubecon-cloudnativecon-japan-2026-schedule-xp5pyudub) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#google](https://daily.dev/tags/google), [#android](https://daily.dev/tags/android) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/google-expands-android-software-in-cars-new-apps-guidelines-and-opportunities-vxnv4xw7q) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Google Expands Android Software in Cars: New Apps, Guidelines, and Opportunities","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/google-expands-android-software-in-cars-new-apps-guidelines-and-opportunities-vxnv4xw7q","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/google-expands-android-software-in-cars-new-apps-guidelines-and-opportunities-vxnv4xw7q"},"datePublished":"2024-05-16T07:57:01.077Z","dateModified":"2024-05-16T07:56:59.368Z","description":"Google expands its Android software into cars, adding new apps and features, releasing guidelines for developers, and providing entertainment options for...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/2f760182067e5ed00855f0f919f5c7ca?_a=AQAEuiZ","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/2f760182067e5ed00855f0f919f5c7ca?_a=AQAEuiZ","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"Collections","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Collections","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--fk_6ycEi--/f_auto,q_auto/v1780996001/logos/collections?_a=BAMAMiWQ0","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/collections"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/google-expands-android-software-in-cars-new-apps-guidelines-and-opportunities-vxnv4xw7q","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":2},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"google,android","timeRequired":"PT2M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Collections","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/collections"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Google Expands Android Software in Cars: New Apps, Guidelines, and Opportunities"}]} ```
