[Updated] Android Auto 8.6 stable is now available for download

A new version is available for download below. It has enabled Coolwalk for everyone….

Google has been working on multiple features for its Android Auto for months, with the latest being the split screen function. The tech company has limited the new feature to beta users, but it seems those in the stable channel can now enjoy it as the company releases the Android Auto 8.6 stable.

The Android Auto 8.6 stable update is arguably the most anticipated, as it brings the Coolwalk feature to everyone. Of course, that is what Google has done with the latest update with version number V8.6.625. It weighs about 39MB, and aside from the split-screen feature, the update also improved performance and fixed bugs.

According to reports, the Android Auto 8.6 stable is currently available for beta testers that run the stable version. However, we have attached a link below to download the update for your Android phone running Android 8.0+. Hopefully, the update will start seeding for everyone in the coming days.

Also, the update has enabled the Material You design on the phone app, while dark mode on the car UI is independent of the phone now. It improved the Do Not Disturb functionality while fixing bugs and other improvements.

Download the Android Auto 8.6 stable

You can download the latest update from Google Play Store or Telegram channel. The update is also available on the APK mirror. It might interest you to know that the Coolwalk feature is now available on cars with Rotary inputs.
