In-car touchscreens are dangerous

Is Spotify car mode still too much in your opinion? I don't look at my phone when driving as much as possible (except for directions, honestly), but it's pretty good for limiting distraction.

Oh. Nice. Looks better than the "main" UI. I guess I'll have to dig up a BLE module and try to make it pretend it's a car.

You can enable car mode manually! Just go to Settings > Car > Switch to car mode and change it to Always.

This looks pretty good, although of course lacking Bluetooth I've never seen it. Looks like you have to go into Settings to enable it manually when you're connecting with a cable but, yes, seems like an improvement. Thank you!
