The UI is just AOSP android, simple and ugly (imo) as always. It's not unique in that either, most OEMs have a skin based on AOSP in some way.
As for the app support, I have had very little issues over the past year on GrapheneOS. Aside from some apps being exclusive to the play store (ie they don't host them elsewhere and Aurora doesn't have a copy), I have a pretty seamless experience. And yes, including banking apps.
Tap to pay doesn't work (they're upfront about that) but NFC is still fully features in my experience.
As a regular user, besides tap to pay what do you use NFC for? I get your point that it works, but what uses are there besides tap to pay for most users?
