What you get for the size.

LiteDash weighs a bit more than StradaOS, but it brings an OBD2 scanner, tires, factory radio and a USB player together, with no extra app. None of the others advertises all four.

When another one suits you.

StradaOS

If your unit runs Android 4 or 5, or you need offline maps today. It's 0.6 MB, also free and open source; no OBD, tires or music player.

AGAMA

If you want lots of themes, don't mind paying, and already use its CRAB and MANTA apps for OBD and tires.

CarWebGuru

If you like its themes and file player, and ads don't bother you.

Dashito

If you want a panel next to Android Auto or gas stations with today's prices, and ads don't bother you. It also has OBD2 and its own phone app.

DuduAuto

It's not an app: it's the system on DUDUAUTO units. If you have one, you don't need a launcher; LiteDash is for every other screen.

Comparison questions.

What is the lightest car launcher?

Of those that publish their size, StradaOS, at 0.6 MB. LiteDash is 1.8 MB and adds an OBD2 scanner, tire pressure, factory FM radio control, a USB player and internet radio, which StradaOS doesn't have.

Which launcher has an OBD2 scanner without another app?

LiteDash and Dashito have it built in. With LiteDash you connect an ELM327 over Bluetooth, BLE, Wi‑Fi or USB and see car health, trouble codes and charts; Dashito connects over Bluetooth or BLE and also reads and clears codes. AGAMA needs its CRAB app with a separate license, and StradaOS has no OBD.

LiteDash or AGAMA?

AGAMA is more popular and has many themes, but it's paid after 30 days, weighs 11.6 MB and needs separate apps for OBD and tires. LiteDash is free, open source and has them built in at 1.8 MB.

LiteDash or CarWebGuru?

CarWebGuru has ads and weighs 29.3 MB, about 16 times more. LiteDash has no ads and adds tire pressure and factory FM radio control.

LiteDash or Dashito?

Dashito, also made in Mexico, has an OBD2 scanner, a phone app, a map with gas stations and their prices, and a panel next to Android Auto, which LiteDash doesn't have. But it has ads (a purchase removes them) and isn't open source. LiteDash is free, ad-free and GPL-3.0, and adds tire pressure, factory FM radio and a USB player, which Dashito doesn't advertise, plus your car in 3D (Dashito uses a photo).

Where does the data come from?

From each app's page on GitHub, Google Play and RuStore, its website and, for Dashito, its tutorial video (Play no longer shows the size). Links are below. If something couldn't be verified, it says "no data".
