Trying to find apps which don't work without Google services while testing a bit more before flashing on my Pixel 3a to finally have a de-googled daily driver.
Even on Graphene my banking apps and WhatsApp are working, no notifications though.

There are the obvious incapacitated ones named or owned By Google (Maps, Waze etc.)
The first surprising one to complain is (backed up to Google Drive).
There is some tradeoff with the camera although Open Camera is quite configurable.

Curious where did you have the most inconvenience running and which are solved by ?
So far the tradeoffs I can gather:
* notifications
* camera
* navigation (with traffic info)
* some apps which might not work even with microG

* only apps that havent had gservices ripped out of them wont work with microG

Push notifications will also work fine on GrapheneOS as long as the apps don't have a hard dependency on Play services. Some apps like WhatsApp need to have this configured. Also, some apps ship different builds outside of the Play store and those will work better without Play.
