Android Auto is the Android equivalent to Apple CarPlay. I.e., it mirrors your Android phone screen onto your car display.

I use Secure Camera by GrapheneOS on my Samsung A53, together with Simple Gallery. Working well enough for me!
No problem at all! You will need to enable developer options in the Android Auto app on your phone. Find the AA app, then scroll to the bottom where it says “version and permission info”. Tap on that section about 7 times until you see a message saying that you have enabled developer options. Then go to the three dots in the right top corner and you will now see developer settings listed there. Open this and enable “unknown sources”. All your non-Google-playstore apps should now show up in your Android Auto, permitted they support AA that is (Metro music player does). Good luck!!
Ow cool, didn’t realise I could use Jellyfin for this purpose also. Will try it out, cheers!
Thank you! Trying out Metro now.
I am trying out Metro now and it looks great. I had to enable developer options in Android Auto and then “allow apps from unknown sources”. Metro then works very will in Android Auto. Good luck!
Thank you! I’ll try out VLC.
Thank you! I’ll try out VLC for playing my offline music.
Yes, unfortunately I haven’t been able to find a foss alternative for Android Auto. If someone happens to know one, I am open to recommendations.
Thanks for the input!

Yes, the exact same was happening for me. Jerboa would crash and android would show me the notification “this app has a bug” whenever I tried to login. Now using Eternity for Lemmy and that is working smoothly.
