Does anyone know if Google pay and banking apps from India (UPI) work on GOS? Pretty much impossible to live in an Indian city without these apps now

Unless something has changed in the past couple years, google pay doesn’t work. Here’s a compatibility list for banking apps:

Most apps will work with just sandboxed play services installed. But, If your app has implemented play integrity checks then you need play store installed, and you need to be logged in too. Only then you’ll be able to use banking apps.

PhonePe works perfectly fine.

Google pay will not work. As for the banking apps, it’ll depend on how the app is implemented. I can pay with my Chase app, but no Google pay (yes, I tried, Sue me 🤣)

I personally don’t have GrapheneOS, but as far as I know, Google Pay doesn’t work, but banking apps should (from what I’ve read)

Btw: The Plexus app rates app functionality in both Degoogled (owner) and microG (sandboxed Google) profiles. FYI tho: it DOESN'T report how FOSS or privacy respecting the apps are. YSK: Plexus doesn't rate itself. 😳
