I've had the Razer phone 2 for about a week and I'm realizing that there are things that the phone can't do.

For example, I can't do video calls using the regular phone app, there's no AR support (Google's arcore) won't download, some apps won't install because the phone is not compatible, for example Adobe premiere clip.

I like the phone, but I didn't see anything anywhere where it said that this phone wouldn't be compatible with some apps or features that it should support.

Please let me know if there is a way to get this things to work on it.

Thank you.

1. You ca use video calls with the dialer using Google Duo but that's it since it's Googles own dialer.

2. AR core support is down to Google, they need to "whitelist" devices in order to use it. Not sure if Razer have asked for this but I can pass it on that it's been asked about.

3. Adobe is a strange one, according the the play store it's not compatible with any Android devices I own so Adobe must have put restrictions on it for some devices unfortunately

Can the RGB be customized, for notifications? I remember reading that it could be, that you could pick a color for different apps, but I don't see a way to do it. Can it be done?

I think it was implied that the colour would be different per app, but not that it was user customisable. I haven't found a way to customise it, but I think it's far from impossible since it's just software. They seem to listen to social media so maybe suggest it? Heck it may be possible to control the LEDs outside the Chroma app. Hmm...
