For my degoogled android, I am uninstalling bloatwares using adb. Now, I even decided to remove Play Store and use Aurora Store and Obtainium; but haven’t touched Google Play Service.

Everything was running smoothly till I recently installed ChatGPT Android; but the app is not even starting, and shows the message you need Play Store or Update it.

Is their any way around for it.

I am considering microG but not aware how those tech work; also no intention for rooting my phone

    Even I use f-droid and use mainstream ones in browser if possible. Along with ChatGPT I saw two other apps that showed same message but dont remember them.

    Now the real question, how do microG works like all I have to install it as I dont know where to start the tutorials. Since i dont want to root my phone

          Depends from application,some apps like whatsapp or viber will tell that they wanna google play service but u can skip this pop up and keep using application but some apps like official chatgpt app will not work at all.
