Changes in version 159:

  • add stubs for AdvancedProtectionManager which was preventing us moving the post-Android-16 sandboxed Google Play services to our App Store's Stable channel (GrapheneOS enables far better security features by default with per-feature and per-app controls where that makes sense instead of the all or nothing iOS Lockdown Mode approach copied by Android 16 which we don't plan to imitate)
  • update target API level to 36 (Android 16)
  • update Android Gradle plugin to 8.11.1
  • update Gradle to 8.14.2

A full list of changes from the previous release (version 158) is available through the Git commit log between the releases (only changes to the gmscompat_config text file and config-holder/ directory are part of GmsCompatConfig).

This update is available to GrapheneOS users via our app repository and will also be bundled into the next OS release.

GmsCompatConfig is the text-based configuration for the GrapheneOS sandboxed Google Play compatibility layer. It provides a large portion of the compatibility shims.
