  Here are the screenshots from the phone and pics of the photos of the AA display at the same time:

  unless users like Peter say what works for them and what doesn't the product quality won't improve.

  Yes, by no means I meant to discharge @Peter-Levis his input. If the screen-estate can be found to enlarge the font, I am all for it. I just wanted to refute the comment on how easy it is 😉 . There are so many parameters to factor in. And even then some people will want an even bigger font 😉

  No offence taken. I totally get that all devices have to be taken into account but I'm sure the developers have a bank of test devices. I am presuming that the app is written in a modern object language where the UI is separate from the engine. I have an interest in programming and have dabbled in languages such as Flutter and in the past Basic, C, C++ Delphi and even Pythonista on my phone. In those languages it is indeed very easy to test an increase in font size. It does not have to be as large as the road text but maybe just one or two font sizes up. It just needs a tweak.

  I'm sure the developers are busy on many other projects but I hope they keep their eye on the main objective that the app is used for navigating on a motorcycle with or without voice commands.

  As you say it is what it is. Just an observation from someone who is interested in UI design.

  Why do you want to use Android Auto (AA) ? Why not a rugged device like Samsung Active Tab instead of a AA device?

  I have done some research in my quest to "the best solution for me", AA device or dedicated Android device.
  First; Some might be MRA related, some are not but I read to many issues with MRA with AA.
  Second; I'm pretty happy with MRA on my mobile phone. I have almost 0 problems online and offline so I don't see added value to a AA device.
  Third; When I'm traveling I have a bigger device (compared with a phone) with me but not as big as a laptop.

  So I decided to stay with a dedicated Android device. I't probably going to be a Samsung Active tab 3 or 5 but other brands are also in consideration.

  But if you want to buy a AA device you can look into Carpuride or Chigee. In my research they came recommended. Mostly Youtube and some articles i found on Google but I don't have first hand experience.

  I know, its not a (direct) answer on your question but I hope it gives you some information.
