Does Android Auto NOT suck for some of you?

I've seen this a couple times, I put it down to the phone getting hot. It's running Android Auto that is doing my navigation and playing my music while charging the whole time. Plus doing typical phone things like telling Google where I am, what I'm listening to and what we are talking about
Even without charging it still gets pretty warm, I'm sure that having a case on the phone makes it harder to cool the phone too.
Galaxy S22, S23, zFold, Pixel 6 Pro, Pixel Fold, all work fine.
I didn't have to add anything for AA to work with AdGuard.

Both Android Auto and SiriusXM in my 23 Outer Banks are garbage. All my previous four F-150 Lariats, which I can no longer afford to buy, worked flawlessly. Dealer just shrugs their shoulders.
Pixel 7. I'd say maybe 20-30% of the time it doesn't want to connect, wired. Wirelessly I'd say 50-60% it won't connect. It freezes up on my maybe once a month? I only use it for maps and once in a while music.

Not a fan. Miss Sync 3. S23. Sometimes I feel there needs to be a day long class, kinda like Offroadeo but less fun to teach me Sync 4.

Soooooo....i have a new Samsung S23 Ultra for a few weeks now and had my 1st issue today. Not sure if there was an update somewhere last night, but didn't have any real issues before. As soon as i started the Bronco, my phone "connected" and was calling myself...really weird. I disconnected that call. I shut off and started the Bronco about 3 more times while running errands...each time it did the same thing. The last time, my audio completely stopped working....no FM, AM, Sirius, or flash drive music. The Audio icon on the radio was grayed out and wouldn't do anything. After trying several things, i finally disconnected my phone from the Bronco and the audio immediately came back. When i reconnected it, the audio stopped and was grayed out again. I finally deleted my phone from the Bronco and paired it again. It seems to be working fine now. Wtf?...just suddenly stops working? Our 2018 GMC 2500 Sierra Denali has never been a problem with our phones or Android auto. Hope Ford figures this mess out soon.

Lux screen. Droid > crapple always so yeah it doesn't suck. The broncos have had some bizarre quirks but that's not the phone's fault. I've had sound suddenly go quite and have had to pullover turn the truck off open the door, close the door and start back up. This however is the Bronco's issue.

Moto X4, Android 9 (don't hate, it works fine as a phone), works fine with my 11 SHO to send/receive phone calls. The SHO was bought specifically because it didn't have a screen - didn't want the complications that come with screens as they age.
Fast forward to the 22 BB with 8" screen. Absolutely unreliable AA either wired or wireless. Usually want to see navigation from the phone. Will show a map for a few minutes, then lock up, so I use a Garmin and leave the Bronco screen for just the radio or XM. I'm thankful for the HVAC and radio *knobs* on the dash.
Just got a Ford firmware update - to v. 3.5.4. "Small changes here and there." smh.
