Any app needed could be run like in an android tablet.
90% of the Greek users upgrading to the android unit do not bother at all with ACP. The remaining 10% is not using it at all even though they bought the dongle.
ACP is mostly helpful in providing connectivity and apps/navi in native infotainment systems.

Hi Iceman7
Yes of course, my comments are purely for people looking at android specifically for Apple CarPlay functionality.
I know (you yourself have explained) that for many F48 owners in Greece, these android units provide a great opportunity to install good navigation and a much larger touch screen with added infotainment suite.
If I had not already fitted an 8.” Oem touch screen, I would probably install a 10.25” android unit
. Not having CarPlay would not be a good reason to avoid choosing this solution.
I have edited my comments above to reflect your advice.
Best wishes
