  • Yeah I completely get that, I took a week to get to a rudimentary working state and about a month to be content with my configuration with everything else going on in life.

    I would recommend making a plan beforehand with what you’ll need to do and then starting on a Friday and battle-proofing everything till Monday if you really depend on it for work. Our life situations unfortunately usually expect us to have a fully “working” smartphone with us with like, a clock app (which GrapheneOS hasn’t pre-installed) that just works etc.

    Stuff like this was incredibly annoying, because with e.g. the clock or map example, just not having a “just works” solution pre installed leads to bad situations, like an alarm not ringing when it’s supposed to and stuff like that.

    But honestly, this should be easier for you than it was for me, because you already got your go-to open source Android apps– unlike me making the switch directly from iOS.
