Android Auto integration

But I hate how many notifications Android Auto creates and how many Google apps you have to install to get it to work. I have it set up under separate user on Graphene OS not to pollute my main profile.

Yeah I'm thinking it might be better to buy a phone mount for my car instead. 😥
