Default Android Automotive (2022 Onwards) can now play files via USB

Posting this as I know a few people were missing this feature. Anyway stumbled accross this video today.

Apparently there is an app called AudioWagon that lets you play files from USB which until now has been missing from non Sensus systems and thought this would come in handy for some.

Thanks for the heads up. I have located the developer online but the app does not appear in my Play Store atm (UK/Isle of Man). Anyone else tried to get the app locally? Cheers.

In car if I remember correctly. I have several apps installed so can't be sure but it can be done.

FYI it all started here on the Polestar forum with Moleman, who has developed it.

Managed to get the app thanks. It showed up straight away in the car. Just converting my SSD to FAT32 from NTFS so it will work. Cheers.
