In a car, you can use Android Auto to short several needs but in the past couple of months, there were several issues occurring. It was related to the connection or screen details. Some users facing Android Auto suddenly stop working. Now, the issue is again happening with the newly launched Galaxy S23 Series.
Samsung recently uncovered its latest flagship devices – Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+ and Galaxy S23 Ultra. Now, some early buyers are seeing problems using Android Auto with their new phones.
Users of the Galaxy S23 Series started reporting the issue on Google’s support forums that the phone is unable to connect to Android Auto reliably. It’s not working only with Galaxy S23, other smartphones are working fine.

Another user wrote: I have the same issue. It keeps telling me that I have to enable Google Maps permissions and that I should “check my notifications” or something like they’re sending me something that I should be clicking on to enable the permissions – except they don’t send me anything. There is no notification. Nothing to click on. When I go into Android Auto or in Google Maps, there is no option to give it additional permissions, or whatever it is that it’s looking for. At the moment, Android Auto is a brick on this phone and it does not function.
