Is OsmAnd subscription/purchase worth it? (lemmy.ml)

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?

I tried osmand~ from f droid (which is essentially the paid version) and for browsing it works great. Navigation was pretty bad however. I had a lot of issue where when I click to find a route to an address it would get stuck and never route. Also in my testing, it would take you some pretty bizarre routes where I couldn't trust it. I am unfortunately back to Google maps that I dowloaded through the aurorastore using as anonymously as I can without any Google account on my device.

It works fine for me but i need it while driving. Does the app lets you use android auto? The one from fdroid has purchase feature (google billing) removed so need to download from playstore to purchase the app.
