There's no shortage of Internet radio options available on the Play Store, but we're still waiting for all of them to get on the bus (so to speak) with Android Auto. Today Deezer, another streaming radio option, gets official support for Android Auto baked into the Android app. It's live in the Play Store now, though it may take a while for the rollout to reach every user. According to the change log, Android Auto support is only available for users who subscribe to Deezer's Premium+ option.

Deezer's Android Auto interface allows users to start "Flow" radio, mixes, playlists, or albums directly from the Auto menu, plus all of the standard playback management options. The only other usability change in this version of the app is the ability to sort mixes by either genre or popularity. The change log also says that Chromecast support has been improved, though the specific nature of those improvements isn't mentioned - it only says "less malfunctions, more stability." Which is nice, I suppose.

Deezer offers streaming to 180 different countries and territories, though Android Auto is obviously a lot more limited than that. App support is still a bit lacking as well, with only a few dozen music and communication apps officially compatible with the platform.
