Androids auto

I have a car with android auto. Is there any way to get the arlo pro camera view in the infotainment screen in the car (since it is supposed to be able to play nice with Google assistant) ? I would like to be able to view on the car screen when I get a motion detection notification instead of fumbling with the phone while driving

When out driving and using your phone with the car's Android Auto app, notifications from the arlo app are not displayed in the Android Auto notification tray. When out traveling you usually are very interested in seeing in movement in our outside your house so it makes a lot of sense to send those notifications through to Android Auto.
I'm not necessarily suggesting the video feed should be passed on to the car screen, there's likely legislation around distracting content like that, but to at least notify about "camera 1 detected movement" would be reassuring so that you don't miss a burglary when on a two hour trip or something.

I think it's fairly easy to do a light weight integration like eg Facebook Messenger does, where notifications produce a sound and can be read by the Android Auto system.
