Best way to install sandboxed gapps only for selected apps
Hi! What would be the best way to limit play serbices to only selected apps. I still need notifications to work from them, but would like to be sure that google can't access anything else
You're viewing a single thread.
Update: I ended up going with microG. You can install the apps from f-droid and with insular/shelter copy them to a work profile. It seems that apps outside of the work profile can't acces these services.
Edit: do NOT install them to non-work profile and then clone them. Instead, they must be installed directly in work profile. My way of doing this was to clone fdroid and install the microG from (work profile) fdroid. If you were to install them to non-work profile, clone them and uninstall the original, your (or at least mine did) phone will be stuck on "phone is starting" after reboot.
Great I'm glad you found a solution that works for you. Just be aware Microg is still phone wide, so any app on your phone can talk to Google.
Whan I installed messenger on my non-work profile, it kept crashing. On the work profile with microG it works. I think it still at least limits the access
