+ GrapheneOS supports setting longer passwords by default: 64 characters

+ This feature allows users to make use of diceware passwords if they don't

+ aggressive throttling and offers a high level of security even for a random 6
+ digit PIN.

Improved user visibility into persistent firmware security through version
and configuration verification with reporting of inconsistencies and debug
features being enabled.
- Support for longer passwords by default (64 characters instead of 16)
- without requiring a device manager
Stricter implementation of the optional fingerprint unlock feature permitting
only 5 attempts rather than 20 before permanent lockout (our recommendation is
still keeping sensitive data in user profiles without fingerprint unlock)
Support for using the fingerprint scanner only for authentication in apps
and unlocking hardware keystore keys by toggling off support for unlocking.
- PIN scrambling option
Per-connection MAC randomization
option (enabled by default) as a more private option than the standard
persistent per-network random MAC.
