These Android Auto settings only matter on long drives, and that's exactly when you'll wish you'd changed them

Google has released the August version of Android Canary, featuring new options for customizing Quick Settings and marking the end of support for older Pixel devices. This release, version 2608, is the final Android Canary build intended for Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro hardware. The 2608 build follows closely on the heels of the July 2607 Canary release, marking a new monthly cadence for these developer-focused Android builds.

While the new features offer testers an early look at upcoming Android changes, the news is less positive for users of the older Pixel models. Google has officially discontinued support for the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro within the Canary program, limiting the life of these devices to the release of this one build.
