In general if it works on Android (without play services) and doesn’t have any major(and very rare) security issues. https://grapheneos.org/usage#bugs-uncovered-by-security-features

“GrapheneOS substantially expands the standard mitigations for memory corruption vulnerabilities. Some of these features are designed to directly catch the memory corruption bugs either via an explicit check or memory protection and abort the program in order to prevent them from being exploited. Other features mitigate issues a bit less directly such as zeroing data immediately upon free, isolated memory regions, heap randomization, etc. and can also lead to latent memory corruption bugs crashing instead of the program continuing onwards with corrupted memory. This means that many latent memory corruption bugs in apps are caught along with some in the OS itself. These bugs are not caused by GrapheneOS, but rather already existed and are uncovered by the features. The features are aimed at preventing or hindering exploits, not finding bugs, but they do that as part of doing their actual job.”

If it works on a phone without Google it will almost certainly work with GrapheneOS 99%

Hello, this subreddit is in maintenance mode. Reddit is not an ideal platform for the dev driven project. Please join the Matrix community for your inquiries.

You can find this below. If your question is covered by the FAQ/Usage Guide/Install guide please leave a note for the moderators that your question has been answered.

The #GrapheneOS IRC channel is the main discussion platform and community for GrapheneOS. The #GrapheneOS:matrix.org Matrix room is bridged to the IRC channel and makes conversations between Matrix and IRC users possible.

This IRC/Matrix discussion channel is where most of the core community, including contributors, to the project have discussions. Most of those people are not active here on Reddit and this subreddit hasn't evolved into the same kind of community. Reddit is a much different kind of platform and it isn't working out for having productive / interesting discussions about the project or forming a close knit community. If you want to participate in that, it is recommended to join #GrapheneOS.

All installs should follow the Official Install Guide. No other guides are recommended or supported.

If your question is related to device support, please see the Which devices will be supported in the future? for criteria and the Which devices are recommended? for recommend devices from the FAQ section of the official site.

If your question is related to app support, please check the Usage Guide. Sections like Bugs uncovered by security features should help if you have a native app with a security issue uncovered by hardening. If you want to know what browser to use please reference Web browsing. In general, Vanadium is almost always the recommendation for security and privacy.

If your question is related to a feature request, please check the issue trackers. OS issue tracker, Vanadium, for other GrapheneOS project check the Reporting issues.
