[Razorback]

I'm still version 8.5. AA 8.6 has full functionality. Slow rollout considering there's already 8.7 beta testers.

You can sideload it yourself: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/android-auto/android-auto-8-6-6250-release/

Didn't enable Coolwalk for me, but it is a required component.

Has anyone had this update show up on an 8" screen yet, or is it purely a 12" thing?

Coolwalk is a SERVER SIDE switch. Sideloading different versions of AA isn't going to get it for you any faster. Google will enable it for you when they're ready. There is nothing you can do to speed that up unless you know someone high up in Google management. Even then you're at their mercy.

I read a Google article on it. Said it was for all screens. It's an Android thing, not a Ford thing.
I predict we will get it on February 12th

Did anyone else get a notice for an update in the FordPass app, but when you select Update Details" The information is blank? Not even a mention of the new version number.

All mine says is "What's in this update?"

It's happened on an update notice Jan 10 and Jan 12.

I'm getting the same thing now.

Ford doing Ford things.

I'm guessing this latest update fixed what they broke in the previous update (spotify would take up to 10 seconds to go to the next track)

I just got Coolwalk. It doesn't show up in the Play Store as an update. Super weird. I looked at the GameSnack thing while parked and had 3X the games I had before. Sure enough, now reporting as 8.6x. It doesn't look much different than 8.5 with cards I got when full screen came with 3.5.3. Still have a lot of the same Waze issues, albeit less often. The YT music suggestions now work 100% of the time.

btw, the game Drift will make you want to punch your display. lol.

Just recieved the Coolwalk update. It's nice having the option of having Google maps as full screen esp on the 12 inch screen.

For the record, it works on 8" displays too

I like it a lot.

I still have yet to get coolwalk...have a Samsung S22+, anyone else get it with the same phone?

Maybe I need to put on some king missle...
