It says to turn it off you open the Gemini app on your Android phone and change some settings. I uninstalled the Gemini app completely. I wonder if it’s still running on my account somehow.
You can do that with any app you like, they can all be disabled that way. Beware though: if you disable critical system components (like e.g. your last launcher, keyboard or systemui) you might not have a great time using your phone afterwards.
So are we just casually mentioning Graphene in every Android article like Linux is mentioned in every Windows article? How many new phones actually support Graphene?
GrapheneOS without any invasive apps is really bare-bones and limited, that’s what I wanted to say using hyperbole, but I guess figures of speech are too advanced for some people.

My phone won’t let me uninstall it. And it shows it’s off yet every now and then it rears it’s ugly head.

Alternatively:
I’ve never even seen Gemini on my phone.
None of my work apps nor my banks app are compatible with Graphene. We need legislation at this point.
I don’t believe you
graphene cant be installed on just any device. the list is quite small actually.

Yeah. If you never install software that is.
A C64 doesn’t run invasive software either.
Yes. A GrapheneOS device and a Commodore 64 are basically the same thing.

I don’t have a Gemini app on my phone. The only way to somewhat disable it is through the settings app.
Thank you definitely few apps I want to remove off my phone.
Use Canta & Shizuku You can uninstall pretty much everything
This combo even got rid of something that was ADB blocked in Android 14.

it would be great to have a non-ml degoogle comm. but then i’m also not willing to put in the work to moderate right now so maybe i’m a whiny asshole
If nobody whines, people think we are ok with how things are, whining is good, even of we can’t do something about it
