On my pixel 9 the aurora store was absolute garbage, constantly saying apps are not compatible with my device. Had to change it to fake an S24 and even then I had this issue constantly.
I'm now just using Aptoide, its the only store I've found that has basically all apps and isn't the play store.
That's odd, I've got a Pixel myself and Aurora just worked right out of the box on GrapheneOS. First time I'm hearing about Aptoide though, I'll check it out.
Aurora works parfectly fine. If not try disabling play store first then set it up
