I am just curious what the state of android auto alternatives are at this point.
As much as I would like to use GrapheneOS I would find it quite hard to part with Android Auto / Apple CarPlay. I am not expecting Android Auto to be one of the apps to be available in sandboxed gapps, but I would like to see a viable alternative that is better than using OsmAnd with my phone mounted to the dashboard.
Get a phone mount for your car and an aux cord.
I could do this but it still presents other issues based off of the two jurisdictions I frequently drive in. In one I can only ‘program’ the GPS via voice commands, and music must be controlled hands free (steering wheel controls / voice commands). In the other jurisdiction it is even stricter and I pretty much cannot do anything on the phone screen while the vehicle is in motion even if mounted, you can do slightly more with the pre-installed one but even checking messages on android auto / apple car play would be considered “illegal” (idk how they’d check tbh)
