In recent years Android Auto has been the victim of countless bugs that have completely weighed down the intelligent driving system developed by Google itself. However, the company has always worked hard to solve the problem as soon as possible and, although today the application remains stable, it is impossible to prevent some operating errors from arising.
This is an inconvenience that we have seen on other occasions and it seems that the Internet giant’s software is suffering from the same problem again. According to users in the community forums, the icons on the screen become huge , to such an extent that it becomes completely impossible to use the app.
Android Auto disabled
It is not the first time that Android Auto has faced a failure like this, because from our site we have already warned you about the previous incident. However, it is quite strange that it is the same error, since the Mountain View company should have already found the key.
As you can see in the image below, the main navigation symbols in the bottom bar have increased in size in such a way that it is almost impossible to access the rest of the system applications. This is because it occupies practically half of the screen.
This Android Auto problem is also extrapolated to the icons of the apps , which are also experiencing a growth in their proportions, although not as significant as the previous one. However, this means that only three programs appear on the screen, so it becomes difficult to access the others.
Likewise, both the date and the coverage and other aspects of the upper bar are part of this problem. The result of all this is a completely unusable interface , leaving users completely unusable.
Why the error appears
Sure, the fault shows up on the car’s screen, but it doesn’t seem to be the source of the problem. Mainly, because all the users who have mentioned the gigantic nature of the icons in Android Auto have one element in common and that is to have Android 12 as the version of the operating system.
The problem seems to arise in international devices, so Spain is included among them obviously. Of course, according to information from the community, Samsung mobiles would be the least affected, although there are exceptions such as the Samsung Galaxy A53. On the other hand, the main affected by this inconvenience are brands such as OnePlus, Xiaomi and OPPO.
It is really unknown why only these companies are affected. In any case, Google is already aware of it and has gone to work to solve the error. A proof that demonstrates it is that they have marked the Android Auto problem as in “Investigation phase”.
This means that for the moment all that remains is to wait for a solution, which is expected to arrive soon. Above all, because it does not allow the use of the intelligent navigation system, so it must be considered a top priority.
