So today I finally took the plunge and bought a new Pixel 8a to install GrapheneOS on. It will be my new daily driver, replacing my current phone. It’s getting delivered tomorrow, and I’d like to make sure I’m getting the full privacy/security benefits from the device. What other recommendations would you provide?

    The suggestions people are making are good but I want to point out that GrapheneOS has good defaults so you don’t need to do much except use your phone. If you don’t have a particularly high threat model you shouldn’t need to make any other considerations (beyond just what software you use on your phone, like if you use something like discord or whatever)
