The icon shape feature changes the appearance of the app icons on Android Auto, depending on the phone’s default icon shape. This feature is especially noticeable for Samsung users, who can see the squircle shape of One UI on their car’s screen.

The update also includes some performance and stability improvements, as well as bug fixes. It is rolling out gradually so it may take hours or days to reach all devices. You can get the update via the Galaxy Store or from the third-party source link.
