Graphene supports NFC, but Google wallet goes out of its way not to work on it.
If you're in the EU you have other wallet options, in the US you're pretty much fucked.
I thought I would miss digital wallets way more than I actually do. Bought a slim wallet, carry just what I need, and get all the privacy benefits of not being on mainline android.
What are the other wallet options?
I keep hearing about curve, and I saw something about walt.is just the other day... But I'm in the US without access to any of them, so I wouldn't trust my references.
There's problems with the eu ones too. I barely used them anyway before but did test after installing and it errored out.
Though yeah that could have just been google pay, now i think about it...
For me they did not work for a while but recently they updated their apps and now it works fully.
Amazing news
