I was expecting more of Android Auto. Maybe my expectations were too high...

Don't know if it's just with me and my phone, when I press/touch a button on Android auto the response is completely different compared to the other on screen apps and functions. It kind of reminds me of the early capacitive touch screens. It's really bad. Anyone else having the same issue?

Don't have a general problem with it but, recently, Spotify within AA has been dreadful as it requires either a very precise or multiple press of certain icons. Don't let these things get me down though, as I'm sure a software update will fix it before long.

More annoyed generally as it was only because of how bad the Sensus nav was at times that made me cough up the £300. I wouldn't expect Volvo to improve the nav much with Android Automotive on the horizon but, time they started bundling Smartphone Integration for free on all their new cars until Android Automotive finally arrives.
