Prevent Android Auto opening the landing screen on launch

[pagrey]

Describe the idea

Is is possible to prevent the initial menu or landing screen from appearing when Android Auto or AA is launched? This doesn't happen on the App. I don't mind doing a custom build if somebody could point me in the correct direction. I've been looking through the source files and making a few changes but haven't had any success. NavigationSession.java and the LandingScreen.kt is generally where I've been looking. Any help would be appreciated.

Expected behaviour

Android Auto should act like the App.

Alternatives you've considered

A custom build is fine.

What do you mean by the initial menu or landing screen ? Any screenshot?

[pagrey]

The landing screen is shown here in the documentation. It's the menu shown with "Free ride" at the top.

Got it. Probably you can disable items here

OsmAnd/OsmAnd/src/net/osmand/plus/auto/screens/LandingScreen.kt

Line 89 in 40d04a7

return PlaceListNavigationTemplate.Builder()

or choose different template

I appreciate the help, I don't want to disable or edit the landing screen. It is required to interact with OsmAnd while running in Android Auto. I want to prevent it from appearing when OsmAnd is launched.
