The new environment of Assistant v Android Auto now displays a "listening" user interface on the bottom bar, replacing the app icons.

In addition to the new design of the Google Assistant, it has also improved the way voice responses work in the Android Car. As before, everything is handled by the Assistant, but voice responses now appear in any space that doesn't use maps in the app. As 9to5Google reports, in the case of its editor's car, voice responses appear along the bottom row of widgets. One panel displays a "Talk Now" prompt, which then overwrites the user's message, while offering prominent "Talk Now" and "Send" buttons. Next to it, the profile picture and name of the person you are talking to is displayed, as well as a small icon of the application in use (in this case, Telegram).

As the site points out, these updates are not entirely dependent on a particular version of the application. The changes will probably reach all users over the next few weeks.
