GrapheneOS Features

I was curious of what Users which are not currently yet in GrapheneOS can expect in the near future? (I mean for example that Keyboard gets published for everyone or Vanadium or some cool new features for GrapheneOS Camera or PDF Viewer or like that)

Personally I'd rather see them focus on GrapheneOS exclusive features. A new SMS app, a new dialer, etc.

wuseman Me too! I would love if GrapheneOS would publish their own Gallery App, File Manager App and Clock App. Because I only use these 3 from my System Apps and I think most People would enjoy these 3 the most! Because everyone needs them and everyone are searching for good ones!

I see no problems with the current Gallery, File Manager and clock App. If it does not fit your needs you can always install an alternative app. I think it would be a waste for the GOS team to spend their resources on creating their own app for this while their are already plenty of alternatives out there.

@GrapheneOS Can we expect to see that soon? I heard, that you will work on the AOSP Apps after Android 15. Is that true?

whambam I'm not on GrapheneOS yet. That's why I had this wish for these Apps. I don't think that it would be a waste, only a win win Situation.

phnx

The developers have said they are planning on replacing the outdated AOSP apps as they have done with the camera app. See their posts here and here.

As for whether this will happen soon is impossible to say as the developers have limited resources and have recently been focusing on higher priority changes like Android 15 and fixing VPN leaks.

phnx In the Link which you sended, they did say, that they will overhaul in the coming months.

phnx

Jfbdjsnsjs Yes and that would be great. I just mean that even if they have time to overhaul one or even multiple apps in the coming months I wouldn't expect complete overhauls of all the mentioned AOSP apps in that time frame.
