GrapheneOS based on Android 16 has been through extensive public Alpha/Beta testing and should reach our Stable channel today. We'll continue fixing various upstream Android 16 regressions such as the back button issue impacting the stock Pixel OS we fixed in our latest release.

GrapheneOS based on Android 16 is now available in our Beta channel. There are 2 main known issues which will be fixed in the next release: lockscreen date and media info are not properly displayed due to an upstream AOSP bug and Pixel Thermometer doesn't appear in our App Store.

Android regularly adds and splits permissions for new API levels. Legacy apps are handled by treating them as requesting the permission to provide a toggle for it. For example, Android 13 converted the existing toggle for disabling notifications for an app into a new POST_NOTIFICATIONS permission.

We're having some issues with federation and have temporary removed the previous thread until it's resolved. Can a few people confirm they can see this post being federated to their instance? We'll remove it and post the previous thread again once that's confirmed.

European authoritarians and their enablers in the media are misrepresenting GrapheneOS and even Pixel phones as if they're something for criminals. GrapheneOS is opposed to the mass surveillance police state these people want to impose on everyone.

Sorry, there will not be an Android version because there is no way to provide 100% anonymity. Each person's device ID would have to be stored and ...

Apple stores which devices/users install which apps. They have the device IDs. US government could obtain a list of people who installed the app if a court authorized it. Not clear what they mean by having to storing device IDs. Those IDs aren't accessible to Android apps.

Our initial highly experimental release based on Android 16 has been published for all sixteen of the supported devices (Pixel 6 through Pixel 9a). It should only be installed on a spare device you don't depend on. It won't brick devices but there will be broken functionality.
