@bazkie@beige.party @nixCraft@mastodon.social GrapheneOS itself doesn't connect to Google services by default and doesn't provide privileged integration for Google apps and services. You can install and use Google apps on GrapheneOS along with apps including Google libraries with a partial or full dependency on Google Play.

We provide our sandboxed Google Play compatibility layer enabling running Google apps as regular sandboxed apps with no special access or control. We coerce them into working as regular apps.
