Google Play Services update.

GOS-user

After moving on to my second space (I use it for google play services), a pop-up shows telling me to update the GooglePS, yet on tapping nothing happens. When I open the GooglePS from Apps, there is no option to update. Should I care or it will be managed automatically like Vanadium and other Gr.OS installs?
P.S. I tried to find a relevant thread but could not see any. Before someone tells me 'there is a lot of info reg.the topic, use search box' I did. ;)

The gservices installed through "apps" will not necessarily be updated immediately to those being provided by g*, so on occasion, you could be harassed to update, even though no updates are available. In theory, the version of those packages available on play store would be able to update what you installed through "apps", but I wouldn't suggest it since those newer versions may not have been tested with grapheneos's compatibility layer.

I think notifications for Play Store updates systematically mean that the Play Store is able to update to a newer version than the Apps repo. The Play Store is pretty much always ahead of the Apps repo and is the recommended way to update.

By default, the Play Store can only update to versions that have been tested and are approved through gmsCompatConfig. Now, ticking the boxes in Apps > sandboxed Google Play > top right corner > Configure Play Store updates does mean that Play Store will update to untested versions.
