      Yeah, what’s with the weather? I want to know the temperature outside without going back to my car’s home screen.

        Are they assuming that every single car in the world also shows the outside temperature all the time in every scenario…?

        I’m lucky because my car adds an extra status bar with the outside temperature, it shows android auto in a window in their UI

      Counterpoint for the sake of discussion: can’t you see what the weather is from inside your car?

      I’m a weather nut myself so I want the weather back, but I can’t help but thinking: but why?

        Closer to the drivers line of sight; like it used to be.

        I’ve got a nice big 9" screen and the clock is still tiny, at the bottom of the screen and on the passenger side.

        That’s just bloody stupid!

          Oh I see. I guess that depends also on the car and their screen position but yeah I guess the top and left (or right if driving on the other side) would be best.

          My car is pretty old tbh, does new cars don’t put a clock on dashboard any more?

            The main screen is my vehicles only clock.

            If I close Android Auto, the factory clock is in a good spot and bigger.
