Type of Enhancement

Web Interface/Frontend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

On android auto the currently playing book is nowhere to be found.

Why would this be helpful?

It's rather more helpful than having to launch the app on my phone to resume playback before it's visible in android auto.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

Any option to show currently listened to books really.. and maybe the next in the series. Discovery is much less interesting when I'm binging a series.

Audiobookshelf Server Version

away from the server ATM but it's automatically updated to the latest docker version on unraid, couldn't find a version number in web app or the app itself

Current Implementation (Screenshot)

No response

This is specific to https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf-app

There are Android Auto issues open which relate to this, but not sure exactly which ones because I don't use Android Auto.
