Not me. But I hate car makers.
Big business in the imperial yankee core killed trains for the world made for the car and not the human. Yankees used to have so much rail.
I just 3D printed a phone holder that slots into a CD player (yeah I have that old car). So now that I have a phone there it looks like it's an infotainment screen. Plus it's silky smooth unlike slow ass infotainment systems. Powered by AIMP player and HERE WeGo maps.
I for one applaud the automakers for their bravery in harvesting our data themselves in order to improve our products!
It's 100% selfish interests and 0% user interests.
I got this great clip:
and the MagSafe iPhone mount that screws into it.
No need for the infotainment screen. Just Bluetooth audio for music.
No Android auto no purchase. Pretty simple. Good luck Chevy 👍
You know, like the infotainment they’re building, that they wouldn’t need to build if they kept phone integration.
fuck android auto. i don't want to have to use my phone for my car infotainment to work
Then get your self a second hand cheap phone and keep it in there.
no thanks no need for google shit in my car it works by itself
So what they're doing is a good thing, is that what you're saying?
no. i just want my car to have it's own working infotainment system and i am myself against android auto or to have to rely on that. would there be an open standard for an open infotainment system that would be something else. in my case i also trust the manufacturer more than google. so i am against "they should stop making infotainment systems we have AA and CarPlay"
No but yes?
