I really appreciate you hilighting the difference between privacy and security. Nobody understands this, and just assume Apple = privacy. It doesn’t. Apple = security. And maybe privacy from everyone except Apple, and anyone else they choose to sell data to.

Exactly. Lots of folks haven't ever thought of the difference.

As you pointed out, Graphine OS when installed presents a limited number of apps. It would be useful to know which other apps we can trust to use on Graphine OS outside of the stock 15. Us lay persons would find the guidance useful. Perhaps a video with suggestions would be an idea.

GrapheneOS intentionally doest coerce any way to load apps, but newbie users are instantly bewildered as to what is best practice to set up the phone with some sort of app store. There needs to be better guidance on initial phone setup, various recommended options for setting up an app store (or several), better info on user profiles, and ramifications on app store apps vis-a-vis user profiles, and, of course, some recommendations on more apps. Plus the elephant in the room is always what to do about a navigation app.

Thank you for explaining the top benefits of this os. I rescently installed it on a pixel 7. It works well, but is a little hard to get used to the differrences from a Samsung phonel I really like the control that is available. You get to pick your own poison.

Thank you so much for your videos! I just installed GrapheneOS today and so far I'm very happy with it. I just turned on the sanboxed Google Play, but at the end of the segment you say that you should disable them when you're not using them. Is that for normal Android phones or also for ones with Graphene? I also don't use them actively and have no idea when other apps use them. That part was a little bit confusing to me.

@privacyproshop 4 ай бұрын

That's just what I do: Any app that I don't fully trust I disable when I don't use it, and you can do that for Google Play Services, too under Graphene. I haven't used regular Android for so long that I don't know if it also applies to that. When the app is disabled it won't talk to anything. When I need it again I enable it. Good example is Whatsapp: One of the airlines I fly uses it for their customer service. I never use it for anything else. As soon as I'm done with the interaction Whatsapp gets disabled as I don't trust anything that comes from Facebook

@@privacyproshop Thanks for the clarification. It will take some getting used to, turning things on and off all the time, but it's a price I'm willing to pay for more privacy! As for Whatsapp: I use an old phone for that if I ever have to communicate through that channel. It won't go anywhere near my regular phone ;-). I'll be checking your channel out regularly :-).

Correct me if I am wrong, how can grapheneOS disable sim, broadcam cpu and sim always communicate each other and always is sending data to cell towers, how grapheneOS communicate with the broadcam chipset to disable this? Cause OS is different layer from Broadcom chipset

@privacyproshop 4 ай бұрын

I'm not a developer, but that's what they claim it does - disables the SIM. Check with the GrapheneOS forums, they might be able to shed some light on this.

Would these defend against IMSI stingray ?

@privacyproshop 6 ай бұрын

Partially. GrapheneOS has a feature that you can force it to "LTE Only" mode so the Stingray can't make the phone use a less secure earlier or newer protocol.

The software overall is quite impressive for it security stance. The CAMERA application though is horrible. The Pixel 8 Pro is arguably the most advanced in Camera technology on a smartphone, on the market today, yet on the GrapheneOS I think my Samsung Note 3 from a decade ago can probably take better pictures and had more features. I realize GrapheneOS is FREE so one cannot complain too much. I do hope though that in the near future the programmers do work on updating the CAMERA app to be much closer to what Google provides or Apple provides.

@privacyproshop 5 ай бұрын

I completely agree. There is an app called OpenCamera that has more features. You can download it from F-Droid. This also goes to show that the camera hardware is only a part of it. It's pretty amazing how much better of a camera you get when you pay millions of dollars to a bunch of developers.

@surfingsub5854 OH SHUT UP! You ppl complaining about cameras and minor stuff is clearly not the target audience for grapheneOS. That's why there is google Samsung Apple windows, etc. for yall non techies, gullible ppl. You should stick to those OS. It's a FKIN phone, you want excellent camera features...invest in a proper camera. But wait, yall will complain that a decent camera cost too much. Ppl who produce top quality photos and videos dont rely their phone cameras.
