I bought a 2019 AMG GT63s and I'm missing Android Auto. Let me know what I need to do to enable it natively.

Mercedes C63s Edition 1
Vouch for RJ automotive, i contacted the guys after reading about them here on this forum, I have a 2019 GT63s and had carplay only, RJ guys came through and it was quick and easy procedure, i ordered the dongle from their website, after it arrived after couple of days i booked a coding session with them, connected the dongle on the car and on laptop, they remotely connected to the laptop and did the job in 5 minutes.

Now I have an option for android auto aswell as carplay, however android auto is not fullscreen like carplay, i don't think there is a native fix for this at least on this version of the system, so i managed to go around it with AA wireless, now with AA wireless there is an option in settings to "emulate" the connection as if it's apple phone - not android, and in this case it's fullscreen like it should have been from the factory. Happy so far

This is with wired connection android auto



This is with wireless android auto connected with AA wireless dongle
