Android Auto blocks ARBP map to be displayed on the Navigation Screen

Bug Reports

I drive an Opel Ampera-e (2017) and tried to use a licensed ABRP instead of Android Auto. Planning on the smartphone or PC with ABRP works perfectly well, livedata transmission from the car with a vLinker MC+ on the smartphone works as well. However Android Auto blocks ARBP map to be displayed on the Navigation Screen of the car, which makes the ABRP usless for Navigation.

Where does this happen?
ABRP version number (found at bottom of settings menu)

    Hi

    What do you mean by using licensed ABRP instead of Android auto? Your car has Android auto but you don’t want to use it?

      Yes this is exactly it. I plan my journeys for long distance e-car trips with ARBP(abonnement type).ARBP shows charging stations, adapts to weather and effective running conditions with live data. It would therefore be better to have the ARBP app running on the car display rather than the Androidauto app.

        In the car you need to use Android auto to show the app on the car screen.
