## Overview
Google Play Services are essential components on most Android devices. They allow you to access your Google account seamlessly and provide Google-specific features for apps that depend on them.

However, when you flash custom ROMs without Google Play Services or opt for alternatives like [microG](https://microg.org/), certain apps may encounter issues — either not functioning at all or experiencing limitations in specific features.

Plexus provides detailed insights into app compatibility whether you’re using ROMs without Google Play Services (like _LineageOS_) or ROMs with microG (such as _CalyxOS_). It helps you identify which apps work, don’t work or have limited features.

All the information is crowdsourced by the community, for the community.

### Verify integrity if downloaded from GitHub
To verify the integrity of the `.apk`/`.aab` files, if downloaded from GitHub, perform the following steps:

Windows

1. Open Powershell by searching for it in the `Start menu` OR by pressing `Win + r` and typing `powershell`
2. Change directory to the downloaded path
```
cd "C:\path\to\downloaded\file"
```
Example:
```
cd "C:\Users\JohnDoe\Downloads"
```
3. Compute the SHA-256 Hash
```
Get-FileHash -Algorithm SHA256 -Path "filename"
```
Example:
```
Get-FileHash -Algorithm SHA256 -Path "Plexus_v2.0.0.apk"
```
4. The computed hash value should be exactly the same as the one provided in the `.sha256` file on GitHub.

Linux & macOS

1. Open terminal
2. Change directory to the downloaded path
```
cd /path/to/downloaded/file
```
Example:
```
cd /home/JohnDoe/Downloads/
```
3. Compute the SHA-256 Hash
```
sha256sum filename
```
Example:
```
sha256sum Plexus_v2.0.0.apk
```
4. The computed hash value should be exactly the same as the one provided in the `.sha256` file on GitHub.
