How bad is Android Auto for privacy on a stock Pixel phone. What can the car and car vendor get access to.
minus-square@vapeloki@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink3•edit-21 month agoThat may be ab implementation detail of android auto for your car manufacturer. I never needed to sync the contacts in BMW and VW. I had some troubles with Ford, but there It worked via USB instead of Bluetooth pairing without forced sync. Edit: I am in Germany, so data protection laws may also be a reason why it works for me
