Great piece from @markgurman on the battle between Android Automotive (AAOS) and CarPlay.

AAOS (not to be confused with Android Auto) is built into the car itself. CarPlay is on your iPhone, requires that connection.

AAOS will cost you money (even if the first year or so is free). So far, Apple has no plans to charge for CarPlay.

And, of course, Google gets your data.

Thoughts?

Developing and making our automotive #browser widely available has been quite the journey! ✨

First we arrived on Polestar, then some models by Renault, Mercedes-Benz and the Volkswagen Group. And now we are available on Google Play! Which means that other car manufacturers using #AndroidAutomotive, such as Volvo, can also access the browser.

Have you been able to test it? Tell us about your experience! 🚗

PS. It's only possible to browse while parked/charging, road safety first!

We made it into this week's Installer by @theverge :tony_happy:

Listen to @davidpierce and get yourself this "superfast, wildly customizable" browser that is "available just about everywhere"!

Get ready to welcome a new browsing experience on all your devices and sync seamlessly between them. 🙂
