I tried Android Auto back when it was first coming out and it was such a slow buggy piece of shit that I have always just looked at my phone for directions instead of connect to Android Auto even when the car supports it.

You should try it again. It's exponentially better than it was when it first launched almost 11 years ago.

The slowness was mostly a hardware issue. It's basically like driving a second monitor, and a lot of the slower phones struggled with it early on.
