Graphene, Calyx, /e/OS... they work and you can install apps from the Play Store, the feedback I got is just that the few apps I need that can't be replaced keeps breaking. It's just more of a hassle than I'm willing to endure. But you right, it is an option.





I think banking apps don't play well with it.

In the event that I have to deprecate my current Android, I might have a go at installing Graphene and trying it out in various countries.


Do you must have banking apps in your phone? And even if you do, do you need them so often that the apps must be installed in your daily driver?

No, actually I don't because my banks app is awful, but my mobile payment app isn't any good if it's not on my phone.
