Is your Jango app refusing to work with Android Auto? Don’t worry! You’re not alone. Many users have faced this issue, and thankfully, there are some simple fixes to get your music streaming smoothly again.
Why Isn’t Jango Working on Android Auto?
There could be several reasons why Jango isn’t functioning on Android Auto. Some of the most common include:
- Compatibility issues between the app and Android Auto.
- Outdated app or software.
- Corrupted cache or app data.
- Connectivity issues with your phone or car system.
Now, let’s go through the solutions one by one.
Fix 1: Restart Everything
Sometimes, the simplest fix is a restart. Try these steps:
- Restart your phone.
- Turn off your car and start it again.
- Reconnect your phone to Android Auto.
If that doesn’t work, move on to the next fix.
Fix 2: Update Jango and Android Auto
Apps and systems get updates frequently. An outdated version could be the issue.
- Go to the Google Play Store.
- Search for Jango and check for updates.
- Do the same for Android Auto.
Update both if available, then try connecting again.
Fix 3: Clear Cache and Data
Over time, cache files pile up and can cause glitches. Here’s how to clear them:
- Open Settings on your phone.
- Go to Apps and find Jango.
- Tap Storage and select Clear Cache.
- If the issue persists, tap Clear Data (this will reset the app, so you may need to log in again).
Repeat the same steps for the Android Auto app.
Fix 4: Check Permissions
Jango needs proper permissions to work with Android Auto. Let’s make sure they’re enabled.
- Go to Settings > Apps > Jango.
- Tap Permissions.
- Ensure permissions for Media & Audio and Microphone are enabled.
Do the same for the Android Auto app.
Fix 5: Reinstall the App
Sometimes, reinstalling the app is the best solution.
- Uninstall Jango from your phone.
- Restart your phone.
- Download and install the app again from the Google Play Store.
- Try connecting to Android Auto again.
If that doesn’t work, let’s keep troubleshooting.
Fix 6: Check Your Internet Connection
Jango needs a good internet connection. If you’re experiencing connection issues:
- Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data.
- Turn on and off Airplane Mode to reset connections.
- Restart your mobile network by toggling Mobile Data off and on.
Fix 7: Enable Developer Mode in Android Auto
This is a more advanced fix, but it has helped some users:
- Open the Android Auto app on your phone.
- Tap on Version until you see a developer mode message.
- Once in developer mode, tap the three-dot menu and select Developer Settings.
- Enable Unknown Sources and other debugging options.
Restart your phone and try using Jango again.
Fix 8: Check for Compatibility Issues
Some devices or car systems may have compatibility problems. To check:
- Visit the Android Auto official site to check your car’s compatibility.
- Ensure your car’s infotainment system firmware is updated.
Final Thoughts
Jango not working with Android Auto can be frustrating, but most problems have simple fixes. Try these steps:
- Restart your phone and car.
- Update both apps.
- Clear cache and check permissions.
- Reinstall the app if necessary.
If none of these work, contacting Jango support might be your best option. Hopefully, one of these fixes helped you get back to streaming your favorite music hassle-free!
