Learned the hard way that android auto compatibility (on GrapheneOS) works only with the playstore Version of an app because andoid auto checks the install source.
Thats the same gatekeeping at play…
AA is also EXTREMELY vpn-unfriendly.
It fails to work period of I’ve got a wireguard VPN without app restrictions, even if there are only a handful of routes using the tunnel.
Then, if I restrict the VPN to just certain apps, it’ll still give me the big ol’ middle finger running those apps via AA, which means I can’t stream from my home media host over VPN while using AA because Papa Google apps no.
Yeap, same. I have given up on Android Auto because of that. I am not going to let Google hold my phone hostage so they can force me to pay ransom (with my data.)

Thanks I hate it.

Really? I’m set up for always on wireguard when not on my home network. And android auto works fine. And yeah, I’m doing full tunnel.
What apps are you using? It refuses to connect to my phone period of on globally, and won’t work with stuff like FinAmp if used app-specific
It seems likely you are using it tethered, vs wireless.

You can fake the install source
Link to how to?
Obtainium has a toggle to set the install source to Google Play. It uses shizuku
Obtainium has to be the best software never ever
Can’t fake googles key signature
Only map apps, though? I know it Android Auto works fine with sideloaded music player.
Some other sideloaded apps work but everything with a map seems to be blocked. I had EV charging apps not show in Android auto.
