en.Wedoany.com Reported - Google has begun rolling out Google Meet to all Android Auto users, who may receive a notification that the app is available the next time they start their car. This rollout follows a phased release and marks the completion of Meet's integration into the Android Auto platform.

Google Meet on Android Auto is limited to audio-only participation and does not support video calls under any circumstances, including when the vehicle is parked. The app allows drivers to join scheduled Google Meet calls hands-free, participate in meetings using voice, and manage basic call controls through the Android Auto interface. Users who need to see participants' video feeds must manually switch to their phone or another device.

Whether the vehicle is moving or parked, Google Meet on Android Auto does not support video mode. This limitation means users who stop mid-journey cannot seamlessly transition from Android Auto to a full video experience. For video functionality, a workaround is to switch to the standard Google Meet app on the connected phone.

The addition of this Google Meet feature follows the broader major Android Auto update announced at Google I/O 2026. That update introduced full-screen Google Maps, native Gemini integration, home screen widgets, and full HD video streaming when the vehicle is parked. In that update, video playback was restricted to when the vehicle is parked, making the lack of parked-mode video for Google Meet a notable gap. Google has not announced a timeline for expanding Meet's feature set on Android Auto or adding video functionality for stationary use.
