Android and Google may seem synonymous with each other, but they are actually quite different. The Android Open Source Project (AOSP) is an open-source software stack for any device, from smartphones to tablets to wearables, created by Google. Google Mobile Services (GMS), on the other hand, are different.

Can I use Android without Google?
You’ll need to install a custom build of Android and use specific apps and mods to replace Google’s. But if you’re concerned about security and privacy, you actually can use Android without Google Play Services.
