About 25% of my apps are from F-Droid. The rest are from Play Store. I want to use Aurora Store to install apps rather than Play Store.

I have installed Aurora Store. Do I simply remove Play Store from GrapheneOS and it will remove all the Play Store apps at once or do I need to first remove them one by one, then remove Play Store, then install each one via Aurora Store?

    Be aware that just a few days ago Aurora Store’s anonymous login function suffered a big outage due to Google throttling the “fake” accounts it uses. It’s been working again since a few days, but it’s clear that Google doesn’t love it.

    EDIT: as pointed out by @mranderson17 the issue was different. Check his reply to my comment.

      According to the developer the issue a couple weeks ago was due to hitting the existing rate limiting because of growing numbers. Not because google was all of a sudden caring more than they used to.

      Was there a more recent issue? Things have been working for me since that account pool increase. I see another issue referencing anonymous login rate limiting but that was already happening before and you could request a new account from the account settings page and it would generally resolve it.

        I was referring to the issues happening a couple of weeks ago, but it seems like I was mistaken. Thanks for pointing it out.
