Does turning these off in google play services hurt other apps?

AngWay

So i installed google play services on my graphenos device and i was wondering if i turn off notifications , sensors, phone, sms, and network off in permissions will that mess with other apps basically turning offf all permissions for play services will the other apps still work with it or do i need these turned on before it will work? Thanks

AngWay If an app is using Google's FCM for notifications, then denying network access to Play will likely impede notifications, or perhaps cause the app to switch to an alternate method drawing more power.

If Play doesn't have network access it won't know when apps are updated.

Honestly since the phone will work just fine with google play services at all it would be fine purely making the phone operating with no permissions

de0u Ok thanks. what about installing the android system intelligence and android system webview i didn't know these were available until i just looked in the sandboxed section of play services. what benefits would i get from installing these? Thanks

A web search for site:discuss.grapheneos.org "android system intelligence" turns up multiple relevant threads.

I believe that Webview is a system component, so I don't think installing a Webview from Google will do anything (I believe the built-in system component will be used).

de0u Ok thanks. i didn't know if installing it would give me the AI stuff that i was reading about that it does.
