They did. This is why Graphene works.

They said they have GOS support in the roadmap, meaning they know it doesn't work but pinky promise to work on it in some undisclosed future.

Call me confused. The comment I was responding to is saying something different:

Yes, they still need to audit and whitelist the builds of GrapheneOS. That's what "standard APIs" are - they identify a build of OS, but someone still needs to make sure it's secure.

If you don't want Google to do that for you, then the app developer has to.
