    <p>NewPipe works on Android Auto, as described <a href="{{ site.baseurl }}/blog/pinned/announcement/newpipe-0.28.0-released">here</a>! You will need to perform these manual steps to make it appear in the car interface (or you can take a look at <a href="https://youtu.be/BKeASJ52DUY">this video</a>):</p>
    <ul>
        <li>Go to the Android <b>system</b> settings</li>
        <li>Navigate to <code>Connected devices > Connection preferences > Android Auto</code> (you can also find it by inserting <i>"Android Auto"</i> in the search box)</li>
        <li>Scroll to the bottom until you find <i>"Version"</i></li>
        <li>Click multiple times on <i>"Version"</i> to activate developer settings</li>

        <li>After activation, click on the 3-dot menu in the top-right and go to <i>"Developer settings"</i></li>
