love what GrapheneOS is doing for Android.
while their core focus is on security & privacy through hardening, some of the changes they make are common sense usability ones.
Like allowing you to disable any app, not just the system software. (Disable it, not uninstall, not archive, not force stop; disable) Super useful one.
Not to mention, giving you the choice to install your apps on a need to basis without having to deal with the incredible amount of pre-installed bloatware.
I also love how they require the device to be unlocked to change any connectivity-related toggles. Seems common sense- Samsung already implements this. I wonder why Pixels (and even iPhones) don't have this already. On Pixels, you can toggle mobile data, wifi, airplane mode, DNS, hotspot, Data saver on/off even if the device is locked. I can't understand why 😬
Wish Google implements some of these into Android proper soon enough 🤷
