Android Auto in Mazda CX5 2019

Trying to install Android auto in my Mazda CX 5 (2019) was only a partial succes. Starting the procedure I did not see any Android Auto sign (blue arrow) on the screen of the car. By touching the text Android Auto on the car screen the App Launcher appeared on the car screen. The app launcher was visible but touching the diffent apps shown there did not result in any action. On my phone I see two messages: one that says “Android Auto is connected with Mazda” and “Android Auto should be updated”

Specs of my phone: Android 14, Processor Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. Version Android Auto: 13.1.644253

Anybody an idea what I missed here or a solution?
Thanks, Peter
 
It may have to be updated by Mazda. Are you trying with wired and wireless and getting the same message? Mazda was slow to upgrade the infotainment system in some models so a trip to the dealership may be needed. Give them a call and see what they say.
I have a '17 cx3 and had to have it installed after market, at least yours is seemingly somewhat better than mine was. I have to use the AAWireless dongle or plug in.
