It's certainly not the case with GrapheneOS. I have hardly faced any issues with the apps that I use. And if it's complaining about not having play services, you can install sandboxed play services on a new profile

Most apps work fine, but certain cases like NFC payments generally don't because those apps require that you are using an OS that is signed by someone on their allow-list.
