Android Auto integration #59

Closed th0mcat closed 2 years ago

Copying some stuff from element-android, #240

It would be great to support Android Auto. Especially for notifications.

I tried declaring android auto support in the manifest https://developer.android.com/training/cars/messaging#manifest-messaging but it didn't seem to work. I thought that with the notifications now using MessagingStyle we would get Android Auto support for free.

Maybe someone else could test.

was previously requested for riot-android as: vector-im/riot-android#2811 vector-im/riot-android#698

...

For reference, Here is Signal's implementation of Android Auto integration. Here's another implementation from an XMPP client called "Conversations"

I'll gladly send a donation to whomever implements this.
