Will there ever be such a thing? I know that you can use your phone on a mount, but having your phone integrated into your dash screen, steering wheel buttons, etc. Is a big convenience and I also think safer.
Would a drop in replacement be possible? Or would a whole new app need to be developed and integrated into every car manufacturer?
This is one google app that I still heavily rely on, unfortunately. I’m sure they are harvesting everything about me as I drive.
You are probably right, always check local laws when modifying your vehicle. Even if there are no laws you will probably run afoul of your insurer in some way.
