  • While you can setup a second profile to put the Google services into, I don’t recommend it.

    The version of Google Services on GrapheneOS thinks it has root, but it does not.

    So there’s no dramatic need to setup a second profile, unless you want it for other reasons.

    I personally think the second profile feature is one of the things people think they want/need from GrapheneOS, but really are happier without.

    (Sure it’s safer, but GrapheneOS is already so much better than other mobile OSes - and I hate to see someone quit GrapheneOS just because they didn’t like the optional profiles.)

    An exception I have seen is for apps mandated for a job. I’m happy to bury that stuff deep.
