RCS is fully supported by GrapheneOS and works via Google Messages. Follow the official instructions and it will work. Google Messages is the only RCS client available for Android in practice and there's no timeline on when it will be added to our own Messaging app. It's planned for the future.

We'll support Pixels until end-of-life. Pixel 8 is one of the recommended devices and either a used Pixel 8 or Pixel 8a is a good budget device.

The initial Motorola device with GrapheneOS support in 2027 will be a flagship much higher end than a Pixel 11 Pro. It will take more time before we can add more devices. There will eventually be more budget devices but initially that's still going to be covered by Pixels. No point waiting to 2027 if you want a budget device to start.

The OS will kill background processes due to memory pressure but it prioritizes killing cached apps kept in memory to speed up startup over background processes.

Background processes which aren't currently supposed to be running are frozen and can't run but remain in memory unless there's memory pressure forcing outright killing.
