Android Auto: Do not lock the mobile screen (like Google Maps)

[himmelbuerger]

Describe the idea

Some years ago Android Auto seemed to forbid to allow handling the mobile during Android Auto connection is established.
But now Google Maps allows for a co-passenger to use the mobile screen and e.g. find a POI to navigate to.

Could OsmAnd allow now the mobile screen map even when Android Auto is running?

At the moment in the description is states:
"For safety reasons, the OsmAnd app screen on your phone is locked while connected to Android Auto. You can interact with the app only through the car display."

This changes would be really useful. It could also just be a settings to allow it, if there could be some potential problems, but I quite often have a co-passenger who like search for something. Now he does it on his phone, find the address and then insert the address in Android Auto which is annoying and needs a second phone.

Expected behaviour

Remove the lock for the map during connection with Android Auto (or allow to remove the lock in settings)

Alternatives you've considered

A second phone to search for something and find the address.

Context

Google Maps allows it:

@thisames Of course, you can try to do that. Your code will be forwarded to our development team for analysis.
