It provides necessary dependencies so that most of the applications which depend on Google services can function on a device without those Google services. <br /> <br /> Another option is [https://grapheneos.org/ GrapheneOS], an optionally degoogled privacy and security focused Android ROM. While not replacing google play services completely, GrapheneOS offers a sandboxed version of the google play services. The sandboxing allows users to control the permissions of the google play services, limiting the privacy risk they pose. GrapheneOS has many other privacy features like more control over app permissions and automatic time-based Wifi and Bluetooth off switches. Despite these features, users may choose not to consider this Android ROM due to its development history and other controversies.&lt;ref&gt; https://youtube.com/watch?v=4To-F6W1NT0 ([https://preservetube.com/watch?v=4To-F6W1NT0 Archived])&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt; https://youtube.com/watch?v=Dx7CZ-2Bajg ([https://preservetube.com/watch?v=Dx7CZ-2Bajg Archived])&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> As for application distribution, alternate channels, such as [https://f-droid.org/ F-droid], [https://auroraoss.com/aurora-store Aurora Store], [https://accrescent.app/ Accrescent], and [https://obtainium.imranr.dev/ Obtanium], do exist.
