LR 9.1.1 on Android now incompatible with Pixel 5a??

Hi,

I'm on version 9.1.1 on Android, on a Google Pixel 5a running GrapheneOS, and Google Play now tells me that the app is not compatible with my device anymore.

What is going on here? The 5a is only a couple years old.

    Hey, @14299699. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll help you figure this out.

     

    Graphene OS isn't stock Android. The Google Play Protect Certification doesn't work with custom ROMs. This can limit your access to apps that need verification.

    The Pixel 5A does meet the minimum system requirement for Lightroom Android: https://adobe.ly/48AjPV9

    You can check Graphene OS forums for experimental workaround or switch back to stock OS & check if that helps.

     

    Let me know how it goes. Thanks!

    Thanks, Sameer. What's odd is that I have used LR on this phone with this OS for years and never had a problem. I also continue to use many other Google Play Protect apps without issues. Has something changed in December about the latest version in terms of compatibility? Thanks.
