Pirat_Nation 🔴(@Pirat_Nation):Volkswagen has blocked its app from working on phones using GrapheneOS, a custom Android version built for stronger privacy and security. Users can no longer log in or control their cars via the app, yet it still runs fine on some old Android phones that no longer receive security updates. Volkswagen says the app relies on official Android features that custom versions lack, highlighting the challenges car companies face with different phone systems. Via:@IntCyberDigest
