You could use something like tasker or another floating gesture app to trigger Circle To Search.
That's the Select function in overview on Pixel smartphone. You would need the Pixel Launcher for this function. But, it may or may not work in GrapheneOS
Hmm... I don't think it's part of the pixel launcher, because I've been using it with Lawnchair for years. I've installed the pixel launcher and it hasn't shown up as an option again yet.
Your default system launcher is responsible for the recents screen. That's the reason you notice jank, bugs less smooth animations when using 3rd party launchers.
It needs to be integrated in your system for it to work. Plus, you may need additional google apps for the text recognition and selection function. You can ask the GrapheneOS developers for this feature. They may be able to do something at the System level.
That doesn't seem to be true, because I just set the default launcher to the pixel launcher, and it didn't change at all. Maybe it is just an integration thing. Maybe if I use regular Play services instead of the sandboxed one.
Edit: never mind, that doesn't seem possible. Oh well, I can live without it.
Edit2: apparently the app I installed was not the Pixel launcher app, because it's not available as a separate app.
