Android Auto and MirrorLink are both applications that allow you to control your Android phone while driving. However, there are some key differences between the two.
Android Auto is an application that is specifically designed for use in the car. It has a simplified interface that makes it easy to control your phone while driving. MirrorLink, on the other hand, is a technology standard that allows any app to be used in the car. This means that any app can be used with MirrorLink, but not all apps will work well with it.
In terms of functionality, Android Auto and MirrorLink both allow you to make calls, send texts, play music, and navigate. However, Android Auto has better integration with Google Maps and other Google services. Additionally, Android Auto can read messages aloud and reply hands-free; MirrorLink cannot do this.
Finally, it’s important to note that not all cars support either Android Auto or MirrorLink. You’ll need to check with your car’s manufacturer to see if either of these technologies are supported.
