I got a new phone. Skipped a few generations and now I’m running the current GrapheneOS, based on Android 15. I’ve moved most of the apps, but now I’d like to install my 3 banking apps and 5 discount program spyware apps. I guess I best separate them from the rest of the arbitrary stuff. Banking apps so they can’t be messed with, and shady discount programs so those apps can’t mess with me and my data…

The internet has a lot of information about Shelter, work profiles, the new(?) private spaces… But I don’t know what is current advice and what’s outdated advice… What’s the current best practice?

    Yeah that sounds like the best solution.

    Just FYI some banking apps don’t work on GrapheneOS (ones that check for strict SafetyNet support I think).

      Yeah, F them. I got some hardware TAN generator because I had that issue before. If they force me to use some stock version of Android, I’ll just delete their app… So no issues there. 😉 I can live the old-school life without Google Pay… Seems PayPal and my current bank do work without issues.

      Thanks!
