@ralphcrutzen Importeren van contacten was een behoorlijke irritante exercitie. Importeren met een contact.vcf lukt niet. Uiteindelijk toch maar Google ad services geïnstalleerd en Google alle rechten gegeven (ehm, waarom had ik ook alweer voor @GrapheneOS gekozen?).

En hup al mijn contacten in mijn telefoon.

Dikke zucht. hoe nu GAS weer te de-installeren zonder contacten te verliezen?

@ralphcrutzen ook grappig. Meldingen van marktplaats werken ook met GAS niet. Ach ja, had ik maar een schaap moeten blijven. @GrapheneOS

@si2mev @ralphcrutzen Their app likely depends on Google Play for push notififications which requires giving it Unrestricted battery mode. If you want to minimize your usage of Google Play, remove it in the Owner user and set up a dedicated work profile or Private Space for it. A work profile is a good option if you want to save Private Space for the main purpose of having private apps/data which remain at rest while using the phone. Google Play is still sandboxed in Owner on GrapheneOS though.

@si2mev @ralphcrutzen You aren't ruining GrapheneOS by using sandboxed Google Play in the Owner user. They're regular sandboxed apps including in the Owner user and you can restore it back to the default of only having the Network permission granted while retaining compatibility with nearly every Play Store app. Network and Unrestricted battery mode are all it needs to provide nearly all functionality apps need. We reroute location requests to Google Play to the OS location service by default.

@si2mev @ralphcrutzen It sounds like you do want to minimize usage of Google Play, so set up a dedicated profile for it. Work profile or Private Space is most convenient since they're nested but you could also use a secondary user. Private Space is essentially a nested secondary user. Work profiles are similar but have to be managed by an device policy management app. Shelter is an open source one for local management which many people use. Private Space + work profile gives 2 nested profiles.
