matchboxbananasynergy sorry, if you think I am mumbling here, you are welcome to delete all my posts in this thread. I have a pretty good idea what I mean.
Play Integrity API and Future of GrapheneOS
- Edited
matchboxbananasynergy got it. Apologize if that's what it seems like I'm doing... My intention was to stick to facts here rather than speculative reasoning, but I can see how my posts could be misconstrued. Feel free to delete as you see fit!
Bringing it back to the initial topic;
Yeah, I really hope that more apps don't use stronger Play Integrity checking, but so far that is few and far between... Hope it stays that way, or...
Would be incredible if hardware based attestation were to have a surge in popularity! However I really wonder why that hasn't been the case... It seems to me that would provide a much stronger form of attestation than using play integrity, but I've never heard a story to date that an app has switched to it. I'd love to be wrong on this point!
Tryptamine I've confirmed that turning on the toggle "Reroute location requests to the OS" prevents your device giving location to Location History, completely! Its an opt in thing in GrapheneOS.
What's this then? Where is it and do you have a bit more info as to what it does or what it's for?
mmmm
That is the default setting. It makes all apps which request location from Google Play instead have the request routed to the OS location provider. Google Play does not need location permission.
Carlos-Anso thanks for the info!
