@stefano Same / similar setup I have currently. I own the Google Pixel 7 Pro and have instsalled GrapheneOS on it 1.5y ago, Love it.
Main profile: Completely de-googled, with F-Droid/Aurora.
Google profile: Some apps I sometimes have to use but require (sandboxed) Google Play
Social Media profile: For Mastodon, LinkedIn, Reddit, Facebook...
Data sync with my home FreeBSD based NAS: Syncthing
. I have blogged about it last year: foo.zone/gemfeed/2023-01-23-wh (Didn't use Syncthing back then)

@stefano Not all banking apps work on GrapheneOS, even with Sandboxed Google Play services, though. For one bank, it works for me. For the other bank, it doesn't. So I still have to have a stock-android phone for this exception. But I am not banking all the time, so the stock-android phone stays home in my shelf.

@stefano Also, Android Auto is supposed to work sandboxed. It does sometimes for me, but often, my car display would just crash and randomly reboot. Not sure, if it is GrapheneOS' fault or my cars....

@snonux I'll try Android Auto in the coming days. As for the banking apps, I rarely need them on the go (I prefer to use my computer for banking stuff), so I will try them but it wouldn't be a big problem

@stefano For now, i have given up Android auto, I just use my phone+google maps on the Google profile + a phone stand in the car. I might re-try, as there were a few updates since i had the problems.

@snonux My wife's car has no problems with Android Auto on my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra (we use it quite often), so that car will be perfect for a test
