Please just don't make the ability to DL translation data through Google a hard dependency for the app. Just let the whole translation machinery fail silently and gracefully (as I think it does now) if someone or other happens to be running Amethyst on a de-googled device.
Also, Amethyst is great.
Is it crashing right now? It's already supposed to not do anything if PlayServices are not available.
I'm also on graphene. I do have Google Play Services installed in the profile where I am using Amethyst but none of the google apps, frameworks, components have any network permissions so they will never be able to make any translation stuff available to Amethyst. I am not getting any crashes with recent versions of Amethyst (I stay up to date with github APK releases).
My plea is just to keep it like this in the future. Translation is a nice-to-have for me but for my purposes, it's way more important to not have Google in my life than to be able to read non-English notes.
