    Hi,

    We have an existing android app, we want that to run in cars as well (Android Auto), for which we modified our AndroidManifest.xml by added required things in the Manifest. But our app is not showing in the Emulator or even in the vehicle.
    Can anyone help us regarding this, Thanks in Advance.

    Did you check the logcat - https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.mobile.android-logcat@1.2/manual/index.html for any errors?

    We are successfully able to create the build, build even showing and running in the Mobile device with no issue. But as we mentioned we are creating the app for Android Auto(Vehicle's Infotainment system). And when we connect the phone to my Car's infotainment system using USB cable , the app is not showing in there.

    Can you please confirm if Android/iOS Applications created from Unity are compatible with Android Auto or Apple Car Play respectively or not?

    Note : we are using the Android studio's Desktop Head Unit (Emulator) to the test app as well but not showing in there as well.

    Hi @akashc We don't officially support Android Auto or Apple Car Play and so we do not guarantee compatibility with either.
