I found the instructions on the website to be completely adequate.
You’ll still be able to use Google Play and the apps found there, if you want to. I’d heard of people having trouble with banking apps. I access my bank using their website, not an app.
Just understand going into this that the priority is privacy, not compatibility. Maybe keep your old phone around in case there’s some must-have app that doesn’t work but you need occasionally.

To elaborate on this answer, I found the performance with graphene to be really subpar.
I know it’s supposed to be exactly the same in terms of speed, but that was not my experience.
If You find the performance of your device to be inadequate now you may wish to upgrade first.

I don’t have any complaints about the performance of graphene on my pixel 7a but I don’t do much outside of texting and browsing webpages. I also get about 3 days of battery life out of a charge.
