Android Auto Keeps Disconnecting

If your Android Auto connection keeps dropping, try the following steps to improve stability:

  1. Restart your phone and vehicle
    Sometimes, a simple restart is all you need to get Android Auto working properly.

  2. Enable “Allow apps while screen is locked”

    • Open the Android Auto app.

    • Tap the Menu (three lines or gear icon).

    • Go to Settings.

    • Enable “Allow apps while screen is locked”.
      This setting is often overlooked but can help prevent connection issues when your screen locks.

  3. Update the Android Auto app

    • Go to the Google Play Store.

    • Search for Android Auto.

    • If an update is available, tap Update.

  4. Uninstall and reinstall the Android Auto app
    Reinstalling can fix corrupted files or outdated settings that may cause disconnections.
