Hi, I didn't install the Aurora store because if I install non open sources app I'll get tracked again.
In term of privacy what does it imply to install the Aurora store? I didn't look much into it, I thought I would get everything with FDroid.
The AOSP clock adds an audible notification 1.5 hour before the alarm (this was silent on my regular Google Android build). If I deactivate the notification, the alarm is still triggered but I have to go into the app to deactivate it (and I'm not sure how reliable it is).
I installed the clock from SimpleMobileTools. It's reliable 80% of the times which isn't ideal for an alarm!
A lot of apps on FDroid are outdated and warned me that they were made for an older version of Android.
I would support the project financially if I stay on it, but the way I see it if I want to remain on GrapheneOS I'm going to have to code (or modify) all the apps I need.
I have 0 knowledge in mobile dev, and frankly I'm not exactly thrilled to have to spend all of my next year free time to build what I need.
I'm not exactly thrilled to go to Apple either, and at this point I think I'd rather go without a mobile phone than to go back to Google.
I need to chew on this.
- mickotron 6y agoI only have my bank app, RSA token app (needed for work, nonnegotiable) and music app (Deezeer) from Aurora. Blokada blocks trackers well enough. Yes it is a compromise but atm, like you have indicated, no-compromise is not very usable. I have keepassdx version 2.8.7 installed and it has magic keyboard. Go to settings > Form filling and play around with magic keyboard settings. Yes F-Droid has some outdated apps, and it seems to by default install an older app version. You can check and usually you can upgrade to a newer version if it's in the repo. Otherwise, some apps or authors do have their own repos you can add.
