Huawei users have a specific navigation app called Petal Maps. Now, you can use Petal Maps on Android Auto natively.

How to Add Petal Maps

Step 1: Install from Play Store

  1. Search for Petal Maps on the Google Play Store (it is available for non-Huawei phones too).
  2. Install the app.

Step 2: Add to Android Auto Launcher

  1. Go to your phone's Settings > Android Auto.
  2. Tap on Customize Launcher.
  3. Check Petal Maps to ensure it appears on your car screen.

Why use Petal Maps?

  • Lane Guidance: Excellent visualization.
  • Offline Maps: Robust offline capabilities.
  • Design: Clean, modern interface compared to Google Maps.

Alternative Solution

If you have a Huawei phone without GMS (Google Mobile Services), you might need a hardware adapter like Carlinkit TBox to run a full Android system on your car screen, allowing you to run the Petal Maps mobile app directly.
