Hallo all !

I know how Osmand Profiles used in Android auto.

Selcet the first profile in the list ... change another profile in the list at first .. and so on.

Also, I know, that it is not possible to change the profile when it is navigate in use with android-auto. - Ok. According to Osmand, the reasons for this have to do with safety while driving. I understand, but :

When I'm driving on the highway and get stuck in traffic, I want to exit the highway and choose a profile that does NOT navigate me back onto the highway.

To do this, I have to find a parking space, close Osmand and Android Auto, set a different profile as the default, restart everything, and continue navigating. This is very inconvenient.

How easy would it be to simply select a different profile (without the highway) – and there's nothing dangerous about that at all. How do you do that? Is there an idea for a great workaround?
