I’m on a quest to de-Google my life and that does include Android Auto. At the very least, I want to use more FOSS stuff if possible. I’m wondering if there’s any FOSS alternative to Android Auto.

Feel free to add your favorite de-googled alternative as well.

    I don’t believe that’s possible, the best you can do is foss apps with android auto compatibly. The only one that shows up as an option for me on my phone is VLC, but I’m sure there are at least a few others. Someone on the fossandroid community said osmand works with it earlier today, but I don’t remember seeing it show up as an option (but that was with a rental car a year ago, things may have changed.)

      I don’t remember OsmAnd working on Android Auto, unless I didn’t see something in the car side of things I was supposed to open.

        I believe android auto support is limited to the paid version, I don’t have an Android Auto car so I can’t confirm if the Fdroid version supports it, but the Play store version has compatability
