Android Auto does not officially support video playback, but users have attempted third-party solutions like CarStream and Fermata Auto, which face compatibility issues with newer Android versions and require workarounds. Overall, watching videos on Android Auto is complicated and not recommended, with better options being to wait for official support or use other methods for audio streaming.
Android Auto does not officially support YouTube, but with the help of third-party apps like CarStream, users can watch YouTube videos on their car's dash screen. To set it up, users need to download the AAAD app from the web, grant permission to download apps from it, and then download CarStream. Once installed, users can connect their phone to the car's display, open Android Auto, and select CarStream to access YouTube. However, this should only be done in a parked vehicle for safety reasons.
