Meeting notes 2025-01-27
- Participants: BMW, FORVIA/Appning by FORVIA, General Motors, FORD, COVESA, UnifiedPush, RemotiveLabs, Elektrobit, Tietoevry, Paradox Cat
- General Topics:
- Unified Push Notifications review:
- Status:
everything delivered, pull request pending - Test Status:
- fine so far,
- self hosting setup to be tested,
- further testers welcome.
- Next steps:
- Releasing an app to Appning and HARMAN Ignite Stores:
went well, onepager feedback from Session from Florian Hirschmann, BMW

- Data workstream
see AOSP: Data Workstream
- Emulator Kickoff - requirements (José Freitas, appning by FORVIA):
- Push notifications
- SDK
- Automotive host:
- explanation: for templated apps that can be used while driving, there is a Car app library for e.g. Point of Interest apps. the automotive host on IVI renders the apps.
- challenge at the moment: mismatch AOSP vs. GAS release.
for the gap, see release notes: https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/car-app - solutions to solve the challenge could be
- update from Google
- restrain API level for developers
- build add-ons on top of AOSP host.
- Add open source map like open street map, as Automotive host doesn't render maps
- Data workstream requirements like authentication, system service.
- From COVESA: building and hosting the images of the emulator,
ideas: - next Steps:
- check with Crave
- document what is needed (→ new space with this confluence)
- meet again next week.
