Hello! I'm running GrapheneOS on my Pixel 7 with sandboxed play services, and use some apps that depends on play services like Satispay and my banking app. Today I tried, as an experiment, to deactivate the play service app, and see what happens. Well, they both opens and seem to work, except for a notification saying "Activate Play Services, this app will not work if you don't" Is this notification lying? Or are some functionalitis not working without play services? If yes, which one?

Yep, I get this sometimes on apps that work just fine.
