    One reason I was really looking forward to Android Auto was so that I could say OK Google, open the garage door. Autovoice does not seem to be able to hear that when connected to Android Auto. Can this be added?

    Doesn't seem to work. Autovoice still doesn't see the command.

    Did you select AutoVoice as the target for the note?

    I don't think I understand what that means. Can you show me what you mean? Thanks!

    Ok, what happens if you say "Ok Google Note to self hello" in Android Auto for you?

    Thanks! I was able to get this working. Notes to Self were going to gmail. I changed it to Autovoice. Will Autovoice ever be able receive commands directly from Android Auto in the future?

    No, I don't think so, sorry! Glad the workaround works :)

    Sorry to bring up an old topic, but I am having trouble with the AutoVoice activation using the "note to self" workaround in Android Auto.
    My language is set to Italian, so when I try to say "note to self" ("prendi nota" in Italian) in the Google app, AutoVoice is correctly associated.
    When I try the same command in Android Auto, either pressing the mic button or saying Ok Google, it responds that "it cannot help me with that" (in Italian, of course).
    Any clues?

    Same for me, in English works well but in Italian won't work.

    Sorry, unfortunately I can't help there. It seems Google somehow forgot to make that work in Italian. Wish I could help!
