Modern cars are packed with advanced user-centric features, making driving easier and more convenient. Amidst these features is the Android Auto app, which allows drivers to sync their mobile phones with the car. The app developed by Google connects to the car\u2019s infotainment system, providing easy access to major mobile functions. Whether receiving calls, sending voice messages, or navigating, Android Auto can cater to all of it. Similar to any other app, Android Auto can also malfunction, and the most common is continuously disconnecting. That said, Android Auto keeps disconnecting, which can be a hassle for many, especially when driving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For your convenience, here we have mentioned different ways to troubleshoot when Android Auto keeps disconnecting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What to Do When Android Auto Keeps Disconnecting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Troubleshooting Android Auto is relatively simpler and can be done by the drivers. Here are some ways to fix when Android auto automatically disconnects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check Your Car\u2019s Compatibility<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

First, check whether the car supports the current version of Android Auto downloaded on your mobile or not. Generally, vehicles released before 2017 support the older version of Android Auto and are unable to cater to the latest version, but it varies from vehicle to vehicle. To avoid confusion, refer to the car\u2019s owner manual<\/a>, which elaborates on which Android Auto version is supported by your car. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reboot Infotainment System<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Android Auto continuously disconnecting can also be due to a malfunctioning infotainment system. Look for common infotainment issues<\/a> like screen flickering or unresponsiveness to voice commands. If the infotainment system is functioning properly, restart the system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Turn off the engine and let the system shut down properly. Once it shuts down, start the ignition, restart the infotainment system and try connecting Android Auto. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update Android Auto <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Android Auto app is regularly updated to maintain its efficiency. That said, if the app is not updated regularly, it might cause issues like automatically disconnecting. To update the Android Auto app on your phone, follow these steps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
