I know that grapheneos has additional security measures compared to calyx, but does it include a similar app to datura firewall, which controls what apps are allowed network access, and I also like some of calyxos’ other features like including aurora store and the panic button, grapheneos feels very barebones, but I have not used either of them yet, so I don’t think I can make a definitive decision
My last Pixel had Calyx installed and I used it for years. I’m on Graphene with my new Pixel as of early June. While there’s no firewall app for Graphene, I get prompted to allow or deny network access for every app I install and can easily revoke access on any apps that are currently installed. I feel like I have a lot more control over the app permissions. I also have the Play Store and am able to use it. Google Play is sandboxed in Graphene. I highly recommend it.
Thanks for the information, quick question, after installing play services, do you need to login to your google account to use the play store?
Yes, unfortunately you need to log into Google Play to use the Play Store. But if you didn’t want to do that, you can always install Aurora. I just removed Aurora though recently because I kept getting rate limited and it was basically useless for me.
I’m having the same issue
