Sapio is the anagram of Open Source API.
Sapio provides the compatibility of an Android application running on a device without Google Play Services (i.e. deGoogled bare Android Open Source Project (AOSP) devices, coupled or not with microG).
Sapio can serve as a lobbying tool by sharing compatibility on social media to raise awareness among app developers about respecting users' personal data.
Evaluations in Sapio are given to the community by the community.
