 Snowden graphene OS is a privacy and security hardened mobile operating system based off Android open source project but this is not one of those security tools that only the top experts can use developed under the leadership of Daniel Mackay graphene OS is just a simple and intuitive as any other modern phone and the system can be installed by anyone without any prior knowledge of anything if you can operate a regular Android phone you can handle graphene OS this is the only system in the world where you can fully enjoy most of the nice features of the latest mobile technology without the

omnipresent eye of Google and other tracking companies but wait he's an Android lead owned and developed by Google isn't graphene OS only compatible with Google pixel phones well yes it is but at its core Android is a fully free and open-source software Google

basically gives away its entire

operating system for free it can be copied used or modified by anyone without Google's permission even you can take Android source code and build your own operating system Google is willing to give up Android in the hopes you'll be using their sweet apps like the Play Store Google search or Google Play services and it's using Google apps where you'll get bombarded with ads and have your privacy violated by removing all Google Apps and api's graphene OS essentially remakes Android in 2d googled and user empowering system you can run and install any Android app available and you can remove any in all apps on your phone

there is no pre-installed corporate bald where that can't be removed with graphene OS you are in full control of your device

how is graphene OS more secure than the stock Android other custom roms or even the Apple iOS from the ground up graphene OS is build with maximum focus on usable privacy and security

unlike other custom roms graphene OS retains all security features offered by Android with the ability to relock the bootloader after a flash the system which gives you a full verified boot on top of android security elements graphene OS has its own privacy and security enhancements and they are pretty significant and when many others it comes with a hardened memory

allocator strengthening application sandbox

stricter SEO linux policies and a hardened version of chromium and webview with the vanadium sub project some of graphene OS security enhancements contributed in the past were so

significant they made their way in the de mainstream Android project making Android more secure for everyone the source code of graphene OS is licensed free in open source which makes the system more transparent and resistant to potential secret backdoor graphene OS shapes all software and security updates without having any remote access into your device or your phone identifier so the government can't target a malicious updates to a specific user unlike Google and Apple who have access to your unique user account and device IDs you can't create a graphene os account that would uniquely identify your device graphene away security is further propped up by its unique attestation service through the auditor amp this feature allows you to verify the authenticity and integrity of the software and firmware on your phone to make sure it wasn't compromised during the installation

graphene OS gives you more customization especially in the arena of permissions where you can revoke full network access to individual apps to limit their ability to track you or steal your data none of the security features increase complexity as graphene OS has been designed to have no too minimal impact on user experience so how does using graphene OS as a daily driver actually feel well

it's actually quite ordinary it's just a normal

phone there is nothing in it that will give you that sense you're in some sort of a hacker mode this is the gold standard of what the text should be like good intuitive and not evil you

shouldn't have to trade off features or usability for freedom and respect of your rights and dignity and that's what graphene OS is when you first boot it up it only comes with a narrow selection of apps provided by graphene itself but you're free to expand it as much as you want the best option is to fire up vanadium head to f-droid org and download and install android apk after it is a repository of free and open source amps of all kinds of categories it's our best chance of finding a replacement for any of the evil amps of our past digital life in hell this may vary from person to person but my most favorite amps are Ned guard poor browser new pipe VLC media player bromide and then a bunch of apps for my day-to-day tasks if you need apps that are only available on Google Play Store you can actually get them anonymously through the Aurora store some of the places where apps require Google Play services which is not present in graphene OS and that can lead to these amps

malfunctioning this is where some of you may have a hard time finding

replacements in this case I do recommend getting a pixel phone to flash graphene device on and keep your main phone four amps that can run on graphene OS if you are sold in graphene OS you are probably wondering how do I install these glorious tool of liberation lucky for you the process is a lot simpler than it may initially seem the first step would be to prepare your phone

graphene OS is best supported on pixel three all the way through to pixel three a excel pixel to his legacy support and pixel four is still experimental as of making out this .article if you're getting a fresh new device make sure it is carrier unlocked I don't buy it from Rison or AT&T

if you need to install in your i recommend you need to have pixel devices
