The best cars & driving apps for Android in 2026

24 apps with a live Google Play listing · checked 29 September 2026

Android phones plug straight into the car through Android Auto and can talk to OBD-II adapters over Bluetooth, which makes them useful for more than navigation. This page lists apps for fuel logs and car maintenance, OBD diagnostics, parking, EV route planning, roadside help, motorcycle intercoms and buying a car, each with a live Google Play listing. An app is named under a feature only when its own Play description mentions it.
