Describe the bug

Reject Message from Android Play console:

At this time, we are only accepting apps within the Media, short form Messaging, or categories supported by the Android for Cars App Library. Media apps that use TSS engine readout for content are not permitted at this time.

CarPlay (please complete the following information):

  • Device: Android
  • RNCarPlay version [2.4.1-beta.0]

Android Auto (please complete the following information):

  • Android Version: 13
  • RNCarPlay version [e.g. 2.4.1-beta.0]

Additional context
In my application, we display both List and Grid templates in the UI, without Map content. Initially, the app was rejected by play console because it was registered as a Navigation app, but the Map was not visible on the page.

I then changed the category in the node module's app file as follows:

This change was made in the following file:
node_modules/react-native-carplay/android/src/main/AndroidManifestNew.xml

After resubmitting the application, we received the following error:

"At this time, we are only accepting apps within the Media, Short-Form Messaging, or categories supported by the Android for Cars App Library. Media apps that use TTS engine readout for content are not permitted at this time."
