Hello all!

We have a car that supports android auto wired (Not wireless) When my dads phone is connected and someone is scrolling true spotify it keeps coming up with a safety break every few seconds or so. Is their some way to disable this without rooting the device he is using a Pixel 7? My phone does not have this issue and i can scroll all day long without it coming up but i am using a P7P with Graphene OS so i suspect it is some kind of permission AA doesn’t have in my case.

I get that the safety break is supposed to be a “feature” to keep your eyes in the road. in practice it does the opposite as you are looking at the screen waiting for it to pass so you can go on with the scrolling.

    I’ve never seen the safety break feature on my phone - looked into “settings” -> “app info” for “android auto” just now.

    The thing that stood out to me: I’ve disabled the ability to overlay onto other apps.

    Maybe this works for you too…

    This is like a feature that seems well intentioned but dangerous anyway, like the Apple look at screen to unlock feature. Hope you succeed in disabling this feature.
