What the heck, is this a new “feature”? Does this also happen on other android flavours like AOSP or GrapheneOS?

      Aux cable and a paper map.

      I was also taught in elementary school how streets and addresses work. I look at comaps and just remember how to get to the street, then I use my eyes and find the address. I even know which side of the street it will be on because the number tells you that.

      As a cyclist and motorcyclist, I will never use my phone in a car that I’m driving. And I despise vehicle that force the drivers to use an iPad to use their vehicle. Maybe take a minute to evaluate what you desire for comfort against what would be best for everyone.

        When I’m in an unfamiliar area, Android Auto is super useful. Even in areas I’m familiar with, having some sort of navigation is useful because one way streets and streets that don’t allow turns exist. A paper map is definitely more dangerous in traffic than the one that flashes your directions on your instrument cluster.
