Grant permissions on car screen

  • Granting permissions in AAOS follows the same flow as in Android Auto, but the user interacts with the car screen.

  • A sample flow demonstrates the steps for a user to grant permissions, starting from opening the app to returning to the landing template after granting permissions.

  • The sample flow highlights key actions like selecting to grant permissions and interacting with a system permissions dialog on the car screen.

In AAOS, the permissions flow is the same as granting permissions on Android Auto, except the user sees permission details on the car screen instead of the phone.
