Android Auto 13.3 update

Although we haven’t seen these features appear yet, the update hints that they are coming soon. Right now, it seems like these categories are being prepared as placeholders for radio station data. They will likely show up when the “Car Media” app is fully launched.

However, it’s unclear exactly when these radio features will be available or how they will work. The new functionality might require deeper integration with car systems, which Google has been working on recently.
