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

    There’s OpenStreetMap for maps

    What alternative to Android Auto is compatible with OpenStreetMap? Since OP asked for an alternative, and what maps app works with that alternative.

        I don’t know if you’re replying to the right person or if there is a language barrier. I don’t think Organic Maps is an alternative to Android Auto. Organic Maps is an alternative to Google Maps.

        OP is asking for an alternative to Android Auto, and for a maps app that works on that alternative.

          Sorry, more of lack of detail on my side. In my mind the map app is a part of the work flow. The voice assistant working over Bluetooth is the next piece, and finally button UI control and the VUI.

          Unfortunately I haven’t seen anything like mimic 3 for Android or full something like full Mycroft replacement of the Google assistant VUI controls.

      I mean placing your phone in one of those car holders or having someone else hold it. It may not be entirely as convenient as having it displayed on a built-in screen, but it’s Google-free and works. I don’t think there are any full software alternatives, because to my knowledge, the car has to allow apps to access the monitor, so you can’t just have any app there. Whatever other things Android Auto does, you should be able to do with just your phone.

      I guess the alternative is to get something to hold your phone in place.
