For all the fancy aspects of CarPlay or whatever the Android version is, what most people really want is a phone mount that charges and can play music.
CarPlay is miles better than most any in-car "infotainment" crap, but all of it is basically not needed.
I dunno, plugging my phone in and having it automatically pop up a suggested route for getting home, that avoids the traffic jam on the freeway I was unwittingly planning on taking, is pretty sweet.
no, what I want from my car display is Google Maps. Music control is a bonus, but my CD player works fine. My very old OEM maps with no traffic insights are the only thing that pain me when I get into my older car after driving a newer one.
I don't want a phone mount, where my phone can fall off. I don't want the rest of the apps available, either. I don't need a DuoLingo practice reminder while I'm driving, get it?
There might be something in Accessibility that could work; unfortunately phones are so strongly built around "one user" that it would be hard to turn on and off.
