Android Auto: now connects 1/10 times (down from 9/10). Same phone, same car. Tried all self help suggestions, barring getting an iPhone.
BBC Sounds: No idea why it has a "subscribe feature" since it doesn't automatically download the latest episode (pretty sure it used to). Which you invariably learn just as you are driving off. Mind you since it doesn't integrate with Android Auto (see above) unlike Castbox, it can take a while to discover. And that's before you realise that at no point does it ever display the episode details on the AA screen. So I have a list of identical programmes.
Even the car crash app for my Smart Thermostat is better. And I wouldn't inflict that on my worst enemy.
