  • Sets himself up for the Grapheneos fanboys flogging. I’m using Grapheneos myself, and i agree they are not very… Tactful in addressing some specific usecases. I agree with the doctrine of not weakening the system, but an option should exist for people that understand the consequences, and still need a different use than the one envisioned by the developers. I’m not talking about root, there’s more decisions that are made for you without your saying. For your safety. But still.



















  • Yes, it gives you notifications on events about to happens (or for which you have set a timed notification ahead of the time). But can you get a week overview? Or a day overview? Do you have a calendar in the watch? Because I do, and mine is empty because it can’t sync with proton (mind you, I still receive notifications for the events coming in 30mins, or a day ahead if I set it that way on the proton calendar app…but I can’t view the event itself, just the notification of it!).

    Android itself (GrapheneOS in my case) isn’t getting calendar events, because Proton Calendar isn’t an Android Calendar app. If you click on your Permission Manager, you can see the different kinds of permission specific apps can request. As in, access to the phone, to the cameras, to the SMS, to the files…to the CALENDAR. Guess which app doesn’t even bother to use the Android calendar infrastructure laid for them? Because internally it’s not officially an android calendar app, at least not internally in its manifest.
