My car has Android automotive. If you’re driving 8 hours a day, it’s better than what you have in your Android or Apple phone. Everything’s right there and it integrates very nicely with the car. However, like most people, you’re only driving for a little bit to work and then your car just sits there. It’s not worth it. Your phone already has everything you want on it and you just want your phone to connect and do things. I hate that in my car if I say hey Google my car jumps in sorry you need a subscription- my phone already has my subscription I don’t want a second one. If I remember I can turn on the Wi-Fi on my hotspot on my phone, but why bother? I don’t even want my car to respond here. I just want my phone which is right there and already can respond and do everything. Part of this is another well deserved rant against GM for not putting Android Auto on their cars. That’s something that other manufacturers do and I suppose in that case it actually would work well. I don’t know.

Have you tried denying the car Google’s microphone access?
I have not seen such a setting. Thanks for the tip, I will look
