<p>In the current early stage of the project, GrapheneOS provides production releases
for the Pixel, Pixel XL, Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 3, Pixel 3 XL, Pixel 3a and Pixel
3a XL. It will support other devices in the future, but devices are carefully chosen
based on their merits rather than the project aiming to have broad device support.
Broad device support is counter to the aims of the project, and the project will
eventually be engaging in hardware and firmware level improvements rather than only
offering suggestions and bug reports upstream for those areas. Much of the work on the
project involves changes that are specific to different devices, and officially
supported devices are the ones targeted by most of this ongoing work. GrapheneOS also
has source level support without device-specific hardening for the Android emulator,
HiKey, HiKey 960 and also generic targets providing basic support for many other
devices.</p>

potential targets. In addition to support for installing other operating systems,
