Android auto APP not showing in pyshical device (is not listed in Android Auto app list) but works fine in DHU

I currently have an app on the Play Store and have created a version for Android Auto.
The Android Auto version works correctly on the DHU (Desktop Head Unit).
To test it on a real device (vehicle), I have created an Internal Test in Play Store, and in it, I have added the original app together with the Android auto bundle.
When I install it from the Play Store, the app does not appear in the list of available for Android Auto.
I suppose it has to do with the configuration of my "manifest" files, but I don't see where the error could be.
Has anyone had the same problem?

This is the "manifest" of the Android Auto app.

I have tested with and without <uses-permission and uses-feature in the Android Auto app, but ever the same result, no way to launch it in the car, because is not available in the android auto list.
Thanks in advance.

Can you add the contents of the automotive_app_desc.xml file? Also, you should declare the minimum Car App API level as a <meta-data> element in the manifest.

Contradictory error when using MobileAds in an Android app

I am somewhat confused by an error showing up in an Android app, where I want to use MobileAds.
Here is the Kotlin code:
val adRequest = AdRequest.Builder().build()
adView.loadAd(adRequest)
The AndroidManifest.xml file contains these three lines:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
And these are the errors I get:
Missing permissions required by BaseAdView.loadAd: android.permission.INTERNET
Missing permissions required by FusedLocationProviderClient.getLastLocation: android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION or android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
Is there anyone out there who has an idea of what is going on?
Any relevant tip or explanation would be more than welcome.
Just in case this is the complete AndroidManifest.xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Places API Not Working

I am trying to use the Google Places API. However, I am always getting errors.

In my LogCat, I am getting this error:
PLACES_API_KEY_INVALID
though, as you can see, I am using a valid key. How can I fix this?

I see there are two different keys in Manfiest.xml
try to remove the one inside the application tag.
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.geo.API_KEY"
android:value="AIzaAPIKEY" />
Here is the edited one, copy and paste and try.
If it din't work, renew your API_Key and then replace it .

Your device should have Android 6.0 version or above to handle Runtime Permissions. Also you need to set the Target SDK version to 23 or above for listing dangerous permissions.
