Or for those without capability to do aux cables, there are cheap Bluetooth receivers that connect to your car radio.

Stuff like this makes me very glad to own my 2015 Nissan Altima. I get occasionally let down by its somewhat lackluster engine and CVT transmission, but it cuts all the crap with infotainment bloatware in the dashboard and how it works. The only screen in my car is a small black strip that can only display text as most cars used to have. All you do is plug in your phone to the aux cord and use your phone as the touchscreen it was made to be, no need for another one. Physical buttons galore.
Car manufacturers need to realize that people already have a touchscreen that has a GPS, podcasts, music, and text messaging service. Best option would be to make built in phone holders that are plugged in via USB C and connect to the sound system. Voila.

Yes. And most modern phones nowadays let you play music through the charging port aswell

Phone holders need to be a thing. Maybe car manufacturers aren’t confident the general sizes of today’s phones won’t last long.

Some people also use tablets and even foldable phones
