GrapheneOS is such a staple for me now. Been waiting for it to be released for the Pixel 8 since I got the phone at launch… it doesn’t have the annoying search bar or the unmovable widget telling you the weather… Regardless of the security and privacy it offers… And its just pretty.

I’ve got burn in from Spotify being left up 10-30 min twice a day during most week days… I’ve read the pixel phone help doc with no solution available… I was wondering if I could do something to fix it myself or do I need to contact Google?
