The article discusses how to improve the performance of Android Auto by making it faster and smoother using simple tweaks to the infotainment system. These changes can significantly improve the operating system, particularly the type of cable used to connect with the data cable instead of wirelessly. The wired connection removes latency and compression, and improves almost every aspect of the interface.

If Android Auto seems slow, make sure no apps are running in the background on your smartphone.
