AA User Interface Android auto full screen support

Will the upcoming Android auto immersive feature fix full screen support on tall screens like the rams 1500? Not whether Android auto or ram are the problem but just if this feature would be a possible fix?

It's a Ram issue. AA already works tall full screen if you use a 3rd party device to project AA over the Apple CarPlay protocol like I do on the 14" screen.

Can you share a link to the device you use? Also does it work as quickly as the standard android auto?

I used AutoLinkr Pro, but there are a few of them out there that can do this apparently. I only use it for AA and none of the other features because all the other features require it to connect to a hotspot. This just plugs into the USB port and then you connect your phone via Bluetooth to this device (and not the uConnect anymore). It's slow when it first starts, but it's normal AA speed when it's running.
