Android auto for OsmAnd is a paid feature either through subscription or one-time purchase. Has anyone tried it and do you think its worth it?
Have you tried the “OsmAnd~” version on fdroid? I think that one is basically the full version without a paywall. You could try yourself if you find it worth it, and buy the official app if you want to support the project.
Yeah that’s what im using from fdroid but Android auto is not available unless i subscribed or pay for the app. Wondering hows the app for people who already used it.
The problem is that android auto is restricted to apps installed from the play store.
The F-Droid Version supports Android Auto, but it’s blocked by Google.
I managed to enable it by spoofing the installer-package during installation.
For me, the navigation is near unusable. Location tends to lag behind by a few seconds when running on Android Auto. On my phone it’s fine.
Wrong community?
Why?
The paid version is neither free nor open source software?
the paid version is still Free and Open source. In this case free stands for Free as in Free speech and not as in Free beer.
Also none of the Free or Open source licences prevent you to sell the compiled software. Hell, most of the Open source licences don’t even prevent you to close the source code (Mozilla, MIT, etc.) it’s only the GPL and a few others that mandate that the source code must be made available on request…
