I download the apk file from Whatsapp website to install in GrapheneOS, and I’ve noticed that notifications for messages are very delayed from 15 minutes to no notifications at all until I turn on phone screen and then all of the messages come through. Is there other Whatsapp users with similar issues with functionality?

Signal functions good but there have been times of small delays with messages coming through to get a notification.

    Are push notifications even coming to Graphene? I was under the impression they’re inherently insecure and are the modern way the NSA watches all our text activity…

      Pretty sure it’s in google services which you can turn on, personally think that waters down the point of Graphene if you leave that on, to the point of pointlessness, but some countries seem to live on whatsapp, more’s the pity.

        I think we’re moving to a world where you need a secure device you own and a sucker device a megacorp sees all on to get by, which sucks
