CarStream (previously YoutubeAuto) for Android Auto APK download and setup
Play Youtube Video on Android Auto using this app
29th Dec 2017 : v1.0 released
29th Dec 2017 : v1.0.1 released to fix install errors on Android API level < 21
30th Dec 2017 : v1.0.2 released with safety disabled. Safety was showing blank screen when fullscreen. Controller support for nontouch screen still pending.
30th Dec 2017 : v1.1.0 Controller support for non touch devices done. Includes fullscreen and back nav support as well.
1st Jan 2018 : v1.1.1 Fix for app not installed on Marshmallow and lower Android phones. Install this version if you face “App not installed” error
1st Jan 2018 : v1.1.2 Stability fixes and support to resume video if was playing before app was minimized.
2nd Jan 2018 : v1.1.3 Ability to open any website via “Google search” option. Also send any custom url from the phone app. The car app remembers the last url visited and loads it automatically.
2nd Jan 2018 : v1.2.0 Speech to text for youtube searches. Minor fix to controller inputs.
2nd Jan 2018 : v1.2.1 Possible first fix for audio volume not controllable.
3rd Jan 2018 : v1.2.2 Full screen videos can be toggled more easily due to floating toolbar. Speech recognising view not hiding bug fixed. Its clickable just in case it doesnt hide. Progressbar to show page load progress.
3rd Jan 2018 : v1.2.3 Possible second fix for audio volume not controllable on some cars
5th Jan 2018 : v1.2.4 Fixed black screen which appears sometimes. Possible third fix for volume control in some systems.
6th Jan 2018 : v1.3.0Night mode support for Youtube added. Switch on your headlights to see the magic.
9th Jan 2018 : v1.3.1 Full screen mode now persists across videos. No need to switch fullscreen mode for each video on a playlist. It also stays on across app launches. You also should see a slight page speed boost.
9th Jan 2018: v1.3.2 Initial implementation of playing local offline videos/music/images. To enable, open phone app, grant “external storage” permission, then long press on the home icon (to the right of back button) on the car to open the SDcard folders. Now you can select a file and play it fullscreen. (Demo)
12th Jan 2018: v1.4.0 Now you should be able to use steering mounted controls (for next and previous video). This update also allows a “somewhat” background playback which allows you to listen to the audio without the video, but the catch is that you have to select the video first using the UI and then switch to background mode. This update should fix any volume control issues you have been facing in the past. (Watch the Demo)
12th Jan 2018: v1.4.1 If you have crashed when accessing youtube purchased videos, this build will fix it.
13th Jan 2018: v1.4.2 Please uninstall all previous builds and install this one if “youtube auto” has suddenly disappeared from Android auto (from last 1-2 days). If you dont uninstall previous builds, there is a chance that 2 similar looking apps show up.
This is possible because Google has blocked my previous app. Still not 100% sure.
13th Jan 2018: v1.4.3 About link redirecting to 404 page fixed.
14th Jan 2018: v1.4.4 Safety Warning popup added which pops up everytime you start driving. This warning will disappear if you use handbrake/parking mode.
15th Jan 2018: v1.5.0Aspect ratio support to remove black bars. You can toggle between aspect ratios in full screen mode. Also irritating notifications have been removed.
15th Jan 2018: v1.5.1Fullscreen controls support for controllers, use right,left,up and center to seek, change aspect ratio and play/pause.
15th Jan 2018: v1.5.2Bug fixes for “I understand the risk” not clickable for some users. Fixed steering mounted controls not working the first time.
15th Jan 2018: v1.5.4Fix for “I understand the risk” button not clickable. Irritating notifications are back because without them there is no way to make steering controls work reliably. Will be fixed soon
18th Jan 2018: v1.6.0Youtube auto renamed to CarStream with new logo. Looks like google bannned again. So if previous app is not showing up, use this app.
19th Jan 2018: v1.6.1Youtube auto renamed to CarStream with new logo. Looks like google bannned again. So if previous app is not showing up, use this app.

Raising bugs, enhancement for new features
CarStream is developed and maintained by me in my free time. In order to efficiently manage my time, it would be great if you can use github for raising bugs and feature requests. I have been using this blog’s comments section till now for this, but it doesnt scale well. So if you put anything here, it will mostly get ignored. So please use github. I know its painful to create a github account, but it helps me. Before raising a github issue, check if the same issue exists, otherwise it will most likely be closed.
Use this link to reach github issues page
Debugging black screen issue
Black screen when switching on Youtube auto is usually related to Power saver mode on your phone. Some phones have it as “aggressive doze mode” or “advanced battery optimization”. For youtube auto to work seamlessly, you have to switch off power saver mode completely or disable it just for Youtube auto.
Also sometimes you can follow this trick of switching on youtube auto phone app on phone and then connecting to the car. Please try this on Xperia and Huawei phones. Also some huawei phones are not compatible with android auto in general. Even Waze doesnt work. Source
Disabling the bottom bar in fullscreen mode
Many users have requested this feature of hiding the nav bar when in fullscreen mode. Unfortunately google doesnt support this feature and we can expect google to give an API in future version of android auto. So this is not feasible.
Source code
If you want to add new features or checkout the code visit https://github.com/thekirankumar/youtube-android-auto/ Pull requests for new feature are welcome.

Note
Disclaimer :This is my personal project and I maintain it in my free time. The work here is in no way related to my Employer. It is a hobby project where I have not committed to anyone about maintaining it. With Google blocking every move, its getting more difficult to progress. You can imagine how it would be to fight as a one man army against google.
Unblocking instructions
[21st Jan 2018] Google has blocked the app multiple times till now and its becoming difficult for me to release just a new version to unblock it. Here are some tricks to do it yourself when google blocks the app.
Google blocks the app’s package name. This is how apps identify themselves and google is able to block the app easily by just identifying my app’s package name and then blocking it. As a workaround, if you are an android developer, just clone the source code and change the package name in build.gradle as well on the google-services.json file.
If you are not a developer, I recommend you use APK Editor Pro app (Its a paid app, but the apks are available everywhere). It allows you to change package names of any app without creating the APK yourself.
- Download APK editor PRO (free version doesnt allow many features)
- Open the settings and click “sign APK with” and select “key created by APK Editor”
- Exit settings and come back to main menu
- click “Select APK from app”
- select the car stream apk
- select “Full Edit”
- click on the third tab on bottom called “manifest”
- click on the second line from top called “manifest xmlns:android….
- click on “package” and change the package name to anything you want. This is the most important step. You should use something which is unique to you. Use maybe your name or username in it. Do not use special character except “dot”. If your name is john doe, use maybe “com.johndoe.testapp” as the package name. Be creative here, because this is what google uses to block the app
- Click save button, be careful not to press cancel.
- Now click the build button on the top-right corner of the screen
- This will take a few seconds and finish the creating a new APK
- [IMPORTANT] Once it finishes, uninstall the old version of car stream. If you dont uninstall, the new APK wont install
- Now go back to APK pro and press install the new apk you created which has your custom package name
- After installation, Car Stream should work for you
If you get install issues with APK editor, try APK cloner. It doesn’t let you change package name, but it automatically chooses a package name and is easy to use and free.
If google blocks the apk again, come back here to this section for a new workaround.

Very well done! I tried something similar, but failed…. Congrats for your work!
It seems to only work for cars with touch display, as I have a car with controller it doesn’t work out perfectly for me, for example I’m not able to make it full screen or to go into the configurations on the top. Do you work on that? Or do you need any feedback about? If you use head unit emulator on your working machine you can open an emulator with controller by: ” ./desktop-head-unit -i controller ”
Regards
Sissi
about 6 years ago
Yes. I got this feedback from another guy too. Didn’t know the head unit server supported controllers. I’ll definitely add support in a few days. Thank you for dropping in a comment.

Hi
I really like a lot what you did for Android Auto. Can you release one version for non touch screens ? (my car does not have touchscreen and i cannot access all the functions as well as playing any video in fullscreen mode)
How about some mirrorlink software for Android Auto or playing videos via VLC (now supported by Android Auto) ?
about 6 years ago
Will definitely add non touch support. I was thinking of another app which can play offline videos from you phones gallery.

Full screen is working but it’s like 95% black filter on whole screen when TURNED ON, so you barely see anything.
Volume control is working OK. Search box is too big, would like to see it all the way in the upper right corner, now it’s more to the center.
GREAT WORK!

I too noticed the black bars for some videos, but for some other videos it worked fine. By default webview was putting black bars on the left and right side, I got rid of those, but the ones on top remain. I will debug this next week.
about 6 years ago
OK, maybe there is some misunderstanding, when I go to FULLSCREEN whole screen goes BLACK, can’t see anything, but when I set brightness of display to max, I can see something, it’s like you will put VERY VERY BLACK GLASS on whole display.

Oh that. That’s a safety feature. You can turn it off by clicking on safety button.

about 6 years ago
Why don’t you open source the app? There is nothing special about it. The big work was done by martoreto who is responsible for the initial SDK. No word mentioned on your site. Also you copy&pasted stuff from other Github repos like VideoEnabledWebView
too without a single attribution.. And not even gathering bitcoins and paypal..
about 6 years ago
Yes sir. Good idea. I was figuring out a way to hide the keystore from the repo. Will be open sourcing post that. And will update the licensing and attribution too.

the control for non touch screen is a bit confusing
1. back button – to exit YTA
i have only have right/left/top/bottom click and a dail to scroll. and enter button
the left click reserved for “voice command” which sometime overwrite by YTA.
at the moment to move from main body to youtube header to program header only using left click or right click.
why not to move up/down use up/down click,
and the oneline keyboard still missing the enter button
about 6 years ago
Can you try v1.2.0 ?
I need some help for testing it out because I dont seem to be able to understand the controller system well and my car doesnt have controller
about 6 years ago
Video of v1.2.3. sorry if my explaination not so clear
https://youtu.be/hQnJqFVkRh8
as you see the dail. waze/sportify use simple way to access the menu. after start the apks. to access menu, use the dail left click. the menu will slide in. to select, turn the dail and enter.
to exit press back button. so the up and down click are reserve for with the main screen
back button is always used to exit whether the menu or the aps
the right click is reserved for voice command.
the volume control still doesn work.
about 6 years ago
Thanks for the work so far
Maybe it is possible to switch websites between mobile and desktop Version? Some streaming websites just provide a link to their apps on their mobile page.
And as next app idea: to migrate an app for playing local Videos like kodi or VLC.

Hi,
I wanted to ask you 2 information:
1)Do you think there is a way to run divx / xvid / mpg files directly from the phone’s memory?
2) is there the possibility to build an app that mirrors the phone screen?
about 6 years ago
Just checked it on my cla,volume still not working. But I saw something interesting. The volume keeps its power that is set on other players like spotify and even on spotify is not working if the player is on pause, only when it plays something can be changed.

Regarding screen mirroring, some apps do this via wifi generating a link. On any device you can type the link and you can see your phone screen. My question is : will it work on the car also via this app ? Of course will need an extra button i belive …
about 6 years ago
It might work but will be terribly slow in terms of framerate and touch latency.

You mean youtube’s offline feature, or videos downloaded from youtube ?
about 6 years ago
if both options are possible, I would be happy
about 6 years ago
Youtube’s offline feature is not exposed to developers So its not possible. And they havent implemented youtube offline on their own mobile website .
For regular videos it is still technically feasible to support and I will create a separate app for that next month

Hiya mate I’ve made a donation to your PayPal to keep up the good work and also keep it ad free. I tried the new version earlier all the new features work well but still no volume control unfortunately. Is it possible to release a version for controllers which have a volume up and down button and the top similar to the full screen option ect. Thanks again.
about 6 years ago
@Michael, Did you try v1.2.1 which i sent yday ? I have put a possible fix which should enable volume control through regular buttons.

Hi, how does voice search work? Can’t find it.
When I’m not parked, I have neither on screen keyboard nor a voice search button.

You might have not granted the permissions for microphone. To do that, open the phone app and grant it.
about 6 years ago
OK, Thanks for the answer ! Is it possible to create a link between Android Auto and Netflix app ? It would be amazing

Screen mirroring is more like a separate project in itself. Will take it up post this project maybe.

1. voice comand within the apps work. can search video and webpage. but it cannot work with car voice command.
2. volume control still missing.
3. the first time i run the apps, the up button work. can move between the page body to page header to apps header.
4. moving between title can only work with left button. right button doesn’t work. down button sometimes work.
5. say if i am at apps header, i can move cursor using the dail. but moving cursor at the app page header only work with left button. right button sometime work.
6. i can do video if you want to see the action.
7. once i accidentally press search button. the search box won’t disappear.

1. This is a limitation of android auto and what I have implemented is a workaround. Android auto doesnt route voice commands to third party apps unless they are published in play store currently. Since this app is not approved by google, it cant be done.
2. For volume control, I am not able to simulate this issue. I have to find a car around me which has this issue, seems like an issue with controller based car. Need help here.
3, 4, 5, 6 : Please send a video which has both screen and dial in frame.
7. Will fix the UX to close search somehow.
Thanks for the details feedback, Ill need more time to smoothen the rough edges and your help like this is greatly appreciated.

Can you try volume control on v1.2.3
The volume should now be controllable through the regular volume hardware buttons

Tried last 130 and is a no go. I read in XDA thread that only some auto has low level media control. Maybe this is the issue. Different type of control imput.

It would be really nice if it could access internal storage to play video files via either current URL input or alternative browser menu.
Nice works, thanks.

small hint not for the app…you are writing bad years for the version history. It is already 2018
