And here I am just wanting the clock back in a safer location and the return of the weather.
21 0 ReplyYeah, what's with the weather? I want to know the temperature outside without going back to my car's home screen.
6 0 ReplyAre they assuming that every single car in the world also shows the outside temperature all the time in every scenario...?
I'm lucky because my car adds an extra status bar with the outside temperature, it shows android auto in a window in their UI

Counterpoint for the sake of discussion: can't you see what the weather is from inside your car?
I'm a weather nut myself so I want the weather back, but I can't help but thinking: but why?
5 0 ReplySorry, I don't have Android Auto... What you mean a safer location?
3 0 ReplyCloser to the drivers line of sight; like it used to be.
I've got a nice big 9" screen and the clock is still tiny, at the bottom of the screen and on the passenger side.
That's just bloody stupid!

My phone wallpaper is vertical. The car screen is horizontal. This is just going to annoy me.

6 0 ReplyAnyone have a fix for the VPN no connection issue?
3 0 ReplySadly, my only fix is to use Tasker to disconnect Wireguard when connected to my car, then turn it back on again afterwards. It's a shit answer to the problem, but it works. And, honestly, I probably wouldn't benefit much from VPN while driving anyway.
