Updates from the Team
Submit Android apps to our AppVerifier database
Privacy Guides is trying our hand at a new project: maintain our own crowd-sourced AppVerifier directory. The goal is that every time an app updates from a source like F-Droid, Accrescent, or Google Play the update will be noted so we can verify the legitimacy of the update. This is very much a work in progress. If you have can think of an app we haven't added yet or see any room for improvement, please submit it! (We're working on a way for non-GitHub users to be able to contribute as well, so please standby for that.)

Initial release of GrapheneOS Speech Services for text-to-speech
GrapheneOS is releasing a text-to-speech service for Graphene phones. If you're on the latest version, it should be installed and enabled by default but otherwise you can grab it from the Graphene App Store. It currently only works in US English but other languages are planned. It is based on fully open source models. They're also planning to release a speech-to-text implementation in the future.
