Added this dual Android unit. This is a fully operational android dual tablet. You can use it as Android Auto or Car Play, but if you connect it to your phone for internet access (Bluetooth or hotspot - you can also connect to the car's hotspot) you have full Android functionality. Still have clear visibility from my seat can see the end of the hood fine. It is using Android 13 - works and sounds great...

I would say, be careful driving in some states. If the screen isn't an original part of the vehicle, it can be considered distracted driving if you interact with them.

Washington State made this kind of thing a primary offense (as in, it can be the sole reason you are pulled over and ticketed).

I TRIED The same thing with an add on screen for Android Auto but didn't like the look and prefered something cleaner so went with EV Play to display on the integrated big screen.
Also, I hope that you're a decent person and use these strictly for your navigation and not watching YouTube or streaming TV? I hope you don't practice being an "attempted murderer" every day that you drive.

Absolutely not watching while driving, hence the black screen app on the front. I just wanted a bigger landscape screen vs my phone's screen where I can use apps like Whatsup, Teams, etc. that I use for work in landscape mode. I intentionally did not connect the camera so I do not get tempted to use it while driving. I was considering the Apple CarPlay / Android Auto Smart Dash Screen fro EV Sportsline, but I didn't like the look and that you could not use the Bluetooth connection directly (it had to go through your phone)...

Nice to here there are still people with common sense on our roads. The developer of EV Play intentionally disabled video streaming and youtube while the vehicle is in motion and you wouldn't believe all the forum post of people complaining and calling it a deal-breaker.
