  • This release adds an opt-in GrapheneOS network location client providing location detection based on nearby Wi-Fi networks using a local trilateration algorithm run on the device. It fetches a list of nearby Wi-Fi networks from Apple's location service either directly or through a GrapheneOS proxy.

    It currently only has a very basic approach to altitude estimation which we'll be properly integrating into the trilateration algorithm in the near future.

    It currently only uses Wi-Fi networks but we'll be extending it with support for using cell towers as a fallback in the near future.

    We're in the process of building our own network location database based on scraping all of the cell tower and Wi-Fi data from Apple's service. Scraping all the cell tower data is quick and will be easy to keep rapidly updated. A contributor scraped more than 2 billion Wi-Fi APs over 3 months.

    This data isn't copyrightable and Apple freely offers it without requiring authentication. It will be the initial basis for our database, but we'll add other sources including an option to send us data from GrapheneOS devices. We'll provide database downloads to support offline network location.

  • The only other things i can think of outside of accrescent would be obtainium or droidify but those aren't as high security as accrescent

  • There is accrescent which is included in the GrapheneOS App store app.

  • This release won't be making it to the Beta and Stable channels due to a regression for changing the per-app settings added by GrapheneOS for apps in the work profile or Private Space when Settings is launched from the Owner user. We'll make a new release later today with a fix.

  • This is why full thread text is posted here for those who can't access mastodon posts.

  • Let's hold out hope that the banks or those who they get their libraries from will move towards officially supporting GOS or stopping with Play Integrity

  • Same here

  • Vanadium is the only officially recommended browser for GrapheneOS users. Vanadium provides major security improvements for web browser, like hardened browser sandbox, site isolation, MTE for enabled for main allocator, and more. https://grapheneos.org/features#vanadium

  • Awesome! Always good to see those who like the camera app. GrapheneOS Is an operating system, like how GNU/Linux is an operating system.

  • Only officially supported devices listed here can be used with GrapheneOS: https://grapheneos.org/faq#supported-devices

    Please be aware that GrapheneOS is not a ROM, as ROM stands for Read Only Memory. The storage medium GrapheneOS is installed to is writeable, thus not being a ROM. Similar to how Windows or Mac are not ROMs but operating systems.

  • My favorite too

  • Hopefully things improve soon.

  • Thank you

  • I 100% agree! Thank you so much for the kind words.

  • You're welcome
