Is there an alternative to Android Auto that doesn't share everything with Google? (lemmy.ml)

Do privacy focused phones have such a service? What maps and music apps do they use if such a thing exists?

Good point. I read it as they want an alt to Google's Android Auto on an Android-compatible phone. But maybe they meant an alt to Google's Android Auto on any phone. I just assumed that they would have asked for an alt for Apple's CarPlay if they were on iPhone and Google's Android Auto if they were on Android. Now, I'm the goober hahahaha

Thanks! On stock Android, if you dial that phone number (don't press Call), you'll be greeted with a little Easter Egg hahaha
