Workshop Sheets for Book 1

Five printable sheets for "GrapheneOS: Android in the Age of Surveillance" — checklists and fill-in forms, no menu paths.

Book 1 of the Digital Sovereignty series is a hands-on manual: flash the device, pick your apps, separate profiles, travel, prepare for the worst case. For exactly those places there are five sheets to print. Free, no sign-up, with a checksum per file. Each sheet names the chapter it belongs to. If you do not own the book you can still use the sheets, but the reasoning lives in the book.

Unlike the Workshop Package for Book 4, these sheets deliberately contain no menu paths and no screenshots. GrapheneOS interfaces change every few months, principles do not. The sheets say what must be done and in which order. Where a setting lives is in the book, and in doubt on grapheneos.org.

⚠ None of these sheets holds a secret

No unlock code, no duress password, no recovery code, no account names. Locations go in as abbreviations only. Every sheet may be found without anything leaving with it. That is by design and stated in every footer.

All at once

Five PDFs in one ZIP file. Right-click → "Save link as", compare the checksum, unzip, print.
