Real unfortunate news for GrapheneOS users as Revolut has decided to ban the use of 'non-google' approved OSes. This is currently being posted about and updated by GrahpeneOS over at Bluesky for those who want to follow it more closely.

Edit: had to change the title, originally it said Uber too but I cannot find back to the source of ether that's true or not..

Would not updating Revolut keep the app compatible as long as you don't sign out?

If so, don't update the app and write down the build number of the last app version which worked on GrapheneOS. That way you would have a bit more time to sort things out.

Small OT: In the article it's mentioned also the app "IO" (italian for the english word "I"). There are also other important italian apps not working without play services. The serious thing is that that apps are almost mandatory to do the ordinary public administration bureaucracy. We can say that the italian state forces its citizens to use a smartphone with Google Play Services installed. This is no sense.

Are there any checker apps to see which of user's installed apps have this? Looking up "Play Integrity API" only finds the checkers for the phone itself...

For Revolut? Unlikely, their website forces you into using the app.
The others sure, i guess, but i don't see the user overlap.

It's a mobile app only. The web interface is strictly for managing your account, last I checked.

I use Authy under a separate work profile on graphene with no issues 🤔

Seems like my time to move away from Authy. Any drop in alternative for iOS? Ideally I could export services and load them back, not manually adding/removing 1 by 1. Even if I can't though, suggestion still welcomed.

Highly highly recommend Ente Auth!
