We just told you about the frustrations that some Samsung users have been having with Android Auto in their cars, and we’ve already got some good news to share.
The problem seemed to be popping up for Galaxy users who had just updated their handsets to One UI 9. Impacted users would find their devices unable to connect to their cars at all, or frequently dropping their connections. Not even switching to a wired connection seemed to do any good.
