Android Auto gets dark mode and a new design update |  Mint – Mint

Android Auto will soon receive its major in-car IP overhaul update, according to a report. The company is believed to have updated the design of the Android Auto settings page on mobile handsets. Recently, 9to5Google reported that Google is rolling out a new Material You redesign for Android Auto. Also, with the new update, the Settings page also gets dark mode.

Speaking of new design, this latest Android Auto update is part of the latest Android Auto 7.5 update and will be gradually rolling out to all users. This means the update will be rolling out to all users soon, the report suggests.

In terms of changes, the Android Auto settings page shows the full Material You overhaul. This means that the interface looks similar to other apps and settings. In addition to that, the app also supports Material You theme for accent colors as well as dark and light themes.

Additionally, the update brings a change in button placement and overall design structure. It looks more organized and in line with other apps.

As a reminder, Google also presented the first public beta of the Android Auto Coolwalk update. The update offers a first look at the new in-vehicle user interface that the tech giant showed off during the Google I/O keynote.

Meanwhile, Google’s cloud division has formed a partnership with local gaming startup SuperGaming.

As part of the combination, SuperGaming’s game engine, SuperPlatform, will be available to developers using Google Cloud to create, host and distribute their games.

The move comes two years after an initial partnership between SuperGaming and Google in 2020, which saw the Pune-based company move its cloud resources from Amazon Web Services (AWS) to Google Cloud.

Developers won’t be restricted to using only Google Cloud if they use SuperGaming resources, but Google’s service would be the “preferred” platform, the companies said in a joint statement. Financial details of the partnership were not disclosed.

SuperGaming’s game engine, SuperPlatform, is currently used by Japanese developer Namco for popular Pac-Man games on mobile devices. The startup, which raised $5.5 million in April last year, is also using its engine to create a local battle royale title, Indus Royale.
