A new change in Android Auto is in development, the buttons for the multimedia player potentially mixed around which could have an impact on muscle memory.
As a rule with multimedia readers, the buttons are arranged with the “rear” button on the left, play / break in the center and jump forward on the right side. It’s also like that in Android Auto, but Google seems to change that.
In the latest Android Auto Beta V14.4, Google seems to experience a modification of the arrangement of the multimedia player buttons on the dashboard widget. The people of Android authority Activated the new user interface that places the Play / Pause button on the left side with the rear and before after that. This is displayed only on the widget of the dashboard, it is therefore not clear if this also applies to the user interface of the main multimedia player. However, this happens in Spotify and Youtube music.
Although placement is probably a little easier to reach, it would certainly ruin muscle memory for anyone really use these pimples. Of course, many use steering wheel controls in the first place.
What do you think of this potential change?
