    Have been wanting to switch to this but have certain apps that I have to use for work and I’m too ignorant to know if regular apps will work on this OS? Can anyone inform me of whether or not some of these apps would work? They’re not any apps that would be widely known, they are specific to my job but can be found on the Play store. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

      In general, the majority of apps should work on a de-googled phone (lineage, graphene, calyx, etc). That said, there are a few apps that require a feature called SafetyNet to ensure the system hasn’t been modified. Apps with this feature will not work and are generally limited to banking/financial type apps.

      They’re missing because of Samsung blocking custom ROMs (at least on Snapdragon/US variants). Blame Samsung
