Is there a confirmed list of apps that will not function in Graphene? I searched around, and all I get is “some bank apps dont work” but your the first I see mention cashapp specifically. I could probably work around Cashapp, but I’d at least need zelle/venmo etc. Due to my credit union app more than likely not being compatible.
I really want to move to the platform, but I don’t currently have a Pixel, so I can’t just try it out. Before going out, buying a Pixel, loading Graphene and finding out I can’t use my banking app or the very least the other money apps I’d just like a heads up.
In the end if I need a backup phone then so be it.
My banking app sadly doesn’t work on a rooted phone.
Grapheneos isn’t rooted by default, and they recommend re-locking the bootloader after installing it, so most banking apps work.
Custom roms dont require rooting. It is a bad security practice and not necessary.
GrapheneOS uses sandboxed google play store and most banking apps work fine with exception like CashApp and other bankspy type shops.

I think this might apply to your request: https://privsec.dev/posts/android/banking-applications-compatibility-with-grapheneos

Almost. It doesn’t list cashapp, venmo, zelle. I use a local credit union, so my bank app would likely never be listed.
Maybe I just keep an eye out for a cheap Pixel and just try it.
I think there lists out there but i never seen them, maybe somebody can post.
My friend tried the switch and cashapp was deal breaker for him so thats how i know.
It is trial and error and my understanding, some banks are actively working to brick custom roms
Cash app used to work according to reddit posts i saw.
I am abit more hardcore about it. If bank fucks around, i will fucking move. I know we cant exepct most people to do this.
But with privacy/security first mentality it is doable.
Thank you. That’s someone willing to make a change.
