I would like to control few functions while driving. navigation (osmand), play music (multiple apps) are main ones. As of now I think either voice assistant or car UI are 2 options. So are there any apps supporting these?

It would be amazing if there was a project out there that was compatible with Android Auto but was privacy-respecting.

if I understand correctly there is no way to make FOSS AA (protocol itself is not open unless reverse engineered). There needs to be separate implementation like AA / CarPlay and headunit needs to support it. Current best case scenario is miracast supporting headunits (but this is one directional)

The car will send completely everything to everyone anyways.
