I also had a look at this before adding the native widget. I don't have an Android Auto capable device, so have no real world application for this.

Part of the motivation to add the widget was, that this would be a somewhat minimal/first step to support the platform, as there is an App that proxies any standard App widget to Android Auto:

https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-5-0-alpha-widgets-for-android-auto.3744179/

Maybe someone has an Android Auto device and can try that?

Michael

Not for me, as I use Google-free LineageOS as operating system on my phone.

Android Auto depends on Google services and that is not my world. 

But if there is going to be development towards Google Auto with the OVMS App, I would like to point out, that it is important, that the app will still be working on Google-free devices.

It seems easier to get onto Android Auto now (although still not trivial and certain things must be locked down ‘while driving’). Is there any interest in this?
