MapQuest, the veteran mapping service that once dominated the early internet, is making a comeback in the modern automotive space. The company has officially announced that its navigation service is now available for use with Android Auto. Users who rely on Google's in-car platform can now access MapQuest's routing and mapping features directly through their vehicle's dashboard interface. This integration is currently being rolled out as a beta service, allowing drivers to test the platform's functionality in real-world driving conditions. By expanding to Android Auto, MapQuest aims to compete with established navigation giants like Google Maps and Waze, offering users an alternative interface for their daily commutes and road trips. Interested users can download the latest version of the app to begin using the service on their compatible Android Auto head units.
