You didn’t need to connect your phone to a vehicle infotainment system.

Most people knew that Android Auto for Phone Screens was on its way out.

Its replacement, Google Assistant Driving Mode, was introduced way back in 2019.

In any case, Google Assistant Driving Mode never got a lot of attention.

Very few people know that the feature exists.

There aren’t any direct replacements for Google Assistant Driving Mode or Android Auto for Phone Screens.

A total of17 Google Assistant featureswill be discontinued in February 2024.

Some of the discontinued features may return as Google Assistant integrates with the Bard AI.
