Everything besides the text announcing while driving. However, there is an app that will do it easily:

And with your $50 Google Play Credit it should cover all the pro features.
Read It To Me is awesome. Can't recommend it more highly! I LOVE THIS APP! I recently switched back to Textra because Google Messages doesnt seem to work with Read It To Me anymore (gee what a surprise) but Textra is working just fine.
You could try ReadItToMe (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=robj.readit.tomefree&hl=en_SG) - works fine for me. Besides with AndroidAuto, it also work just with car Bluetooth-connection ...

Through my searching I stumbled across ReadItToMe
Looks like this is a good one for just text messages, it allows you to use the BT Mono setting which will act like a phone call and break into radio if i have my car set to that, only downside is the text to speech engine it uses is pretty bad sounding, but cant all have Cortana i guess
gonna try it out using the 2 week pro trial
get an app like read it to me
I'm not sure how I can be more clear in my question... what notifications are you looking for that you're not seeing, aren't visible enough, don't indicate their importance, or disappear too fast? You keep saying this is a problem, but I've never heard anyone complain about this before, nor have I ever experienced it. So can you expand?
> And it reads the messages to you? I know for a fact Google does not.
"Hey Google, read my text messages." This 100% works. You can also use ReadItToMe to have it automatically read incoming text messages through the car and respond using voice.
> The I in "UI", that I've referenced multiple times at this point, stands for "interface", so yes, that's what I've been talking about.
You're talking about navigating the UI, not just the UI itself. Despite you confounding the terms, they are two different actions. Tesla clearly intended users to navigate via touch, where as BMW has decided to navigate using their popular wheel interface.
> What? You don't view/adjust seat heaters? Look at the navigation map? Adjust the temperature controls? Change the music playlist? Turn the headlights on when it's raining? Adjust wiper speed? Look which direction you're heading? Look at your efficiency or your projected range?
It's funny because in the next sentence you complain about me not reading well, but you're apparently having lots of issues reading and communicating. I've said multiple times, many of your complaints are the result of the 3/Y not having a dash screen. I drive an X. This is not an issue with the X/S because they have the dash screen. Navigation is on the left side of the dash. Temperature controls are fully adjusted by buttons in the steering wheel. Headlights are always on so maybe you mean highs? Wipers have a stalk. TBT directions and range are on my dash. The only thing I can't do from my steering column is heated seats, which I turn on when I get in the car or use the voice command.
Even when I do look at the larger map on the center console to get an idea of the trip overall, it's not a hinderance. All models give you audio queues on turns, as is a standard GPS feature. The BMW map is literally in the same place as the 3/Y, so you have the same problem with the map there, but the screen is much smaller so it's worse in many ways.
Even ignoring all of the above, you do realize that you can do pretty much all of this through voice control, right? "Turn on the wipers," "turn on the heated seat," "make it cooler," etc.
> Yes, I have. ALL OF THEM. ALLLLLL OF THEM.
What notifications specifically? You just keep waving your hands and saying "NOTIFICATIONS!" Dude, which notifications?
Definitely need some interface improvements, but most of your issues seem like they could be solved with some good old RTFM.
Readittome app 'may' work for you. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=robj.readit.tomefree
Pretty sure there must be apps like this that can do that on Android, although most apps make use of Play Services.
Perhaps ReadItToMe
Not that I am aware of. I use an app called ReadItToMe...works pretty well.

I get what you're saying. In the mean time I saw this app in another thread. ReadItToMe
Ok I have found something, theres an app called ReadItToMe
I was able to get it to read out texts, and by setting it to use BT Mono in the settings, it will tap into radio via the phone call style
Downside is the text to speech engine it uses is pretty average, but its better than nothing I suppose (i did tweet the developer to see if there are plans for an update in that regard)
It also supports auto launching on BT profiles, so you can have it only work on your car kit
