Real unfortunate news for GrapheneOS users as Revolut has decided to ban the use of 'non-google' approved OSes. This is currently being posted about and updated by GrahpeneOS over at Bluesky for those who want to follow it more closely.

Edit: had to change the title, originally it said Uber too but I cannot find back to the source of ether that's true or not..

Nice, thanks for the tip! Also thanks for going through the trouble of finding out for me, I appreciate it! I'm unfortunately in one of the regions where it's specifically not available. But the second phone thing might be an option. That, or just a compatibility layer with regular old android after all.

Well you can use Calyx instead, which supports microG instead of Graphene, at the expense of somewhat lower security level. Or wait until sandboxes google services gets patched accordingly.
