Google last month announced the availability of the platform's API for developers. The Android Auto APIs will enable developers to make car-optimised audio and messaging apps. Using the API and UX guidelines, developers will now be able to build auto-optimised Android apps for audio and messaging.
In addition, Google also allowed developers to extend their existing Android 5.0 Lollipop(API Level 21 or higher) apps "to work in the car without having to worry about vehicle-specific hardware differences." The added bonus will give developers a wider reach across various car manufacturers, regions and models.

The company says that with the integration of this feature to a third-party app search, users will be able to use 'Ok, Google' voice command following the search query and the app name will eliminate extra efforts of opening and searching from the app.
