Well you won't be able to use it at all even if you need it, but if that works for you, go nuts.
I can't imagine ever needing it. What is it even for? All it ever did for me was instantly answer spam phone calls that I would have rejected, doesn't let me use my phone until my GPS indicates I've reached my destination, and it would automatically answer texts telling them that I'm driving. Like leave me alone big brother ugh!
What are you going to use if you are driving somewhere new and don't know where you are going though? I used AA for the maps and directions only and I miss it alot.
I use a phone holder and my phone sits there with my maps app showing me the navigation.
Same. I pair my phone to my car's Bluetooth.
No Android Auto overbearing Big Brother necessary.
Seems that guy who loves Android Auto so much thinks there's no other option 🤦♀️
Hey, you're the one that bought a Samsung phone 🤹
damn i had to screenshot & zoom in to figure out what the heck emoji that was
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
Don't connect your phone to your car
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
I pair my phone to my car's Bluetooth. Google maps is what I use. You don't need Android Auto for that.
