My current phone is starting to annoy me after 7 years of usage (Xiaomi Note 8 Pro) and I’m thinking of finally getting a new one. With that in mind, I’m considering setting up a De-Googled OS as well, but there are a few things that I cannot compromise on:

• Google Maps (I need the live traffic data when in a hurry, otherwise CoMaps is very nice)
• Banking Apps (I’ve checked them in the GrapheneOS list and they do seem to work)
• Instagram (it sucks I know, but I like not being a hermit)
• Company Portal & Teams (absolute garbage, but I need it for work)

If any one of these aren’t guaranteed to work, then it’s not an option for me right now.

If they do work, which De-Googled OS should I go for? GrapheneOS does seem like the most private one and maybe the most likely to remain worked on and supported for a long time, but it means that I’m going to have to buy a Pixel, probably a refurbished one.

Lastly, if I install another OS and regret it, is it possible to install the stock OS again?

Edit: Also, what happens after Google’s “Unverified App” decision has passed, will this affect these alternative OS?
