    That’s nothing to do with android auto/car play and entirely down to the manufacturer of your car being an asshat.

    Is it a Mazda? Mazda is one of the worst about this. I think they’ve gotten better in their latest cars, but that doesn’t fix the existing ones.

      It’s a Honda. But that’s exactly the point I’m trying to make here. With both car play and Android Auto I have issues but they’re down to how the manufacturer chose to implement each. Car manufacturers deliberately hamstrung these features and still didn’t get what they wanted.

        Dacia’s implementation isn’t bad. The only safety limits in there are the ones imposed by Android Auto.

        But I totally agree with you, when your car/android auto/phone combo acts dumb, finger pointing to who is at fault hardly matters, because it doesn’t work and that’s all that matters (except for knowing which manufacturer to avoid the next time).
