That competitor is GrapheneOS. For now, the OS runs on Pixel phones only, but they plan to release their own phone in partnership with an OEM. I expect that this will easily be the most secure and privacy respecting phone out there when it releases. You get more or less 100% Android compatibility except for a handful of apps that enforce the Play Integrity cancer.
- randyrand 9mo agoIt needs to be compatible with iOS apps, not Android.
- drnick1 9mo agoWhy so? Last time I checked Android had more apps available, especially FOSS apps.
- dkarbayev 9mo agoSo, most of the banking or other financial apps, government ID apps (like AGOV in Switzerland) probably won't work on that phone?
- drnick1 9mo agoMost banking apps run just fine. My experience is limited to a handful of U.S. banks, but the Graphene community maintains an international list of apps tested by the community.
- reddalo 9mo agoCannot Graphene just lie to those apps so they think they're running on a Google-sanctioned Android?
- sleight42 9mo agoAren't there other Android releases that run on older hardware and no Google?
