I don't know much about the creator of GrapheneOS. What's the bad about them? I know they're a little dogmatic, as security/FOSS folk can sometimes be, but I've not heard anything beyond that.

If you are either A) bootloader unlocked or B) using a custom ROM via an exploit, your system is freely open to modification by a physical attacker, regardless.
I had never heard of BangleJS before and wow, that thing is awesome!
I'm neither a JS or Android/iOS developer, and this thing makes me want to try making a Fitbit-like fitness tracker and companion app.
I might seriously get one. I've been on a privacy/declouding kick lately and have somewhat missed my smart watch. This thing looks like great fun.
And if the prospective protestors are comfortable, they'll stop short of their goals. Perhaps very short, if they start at all.
If you're on Android, as well, look into BlueBubbles. It bridges iMessage from a MacOS system to most any device/OS. I've used it for years now with my partner's family with very little issue (all of which were resolved with a restart).
Hard part is getting a MacOS system. I started with a VM, but eventually landed on a ~$100 Mac Mini 2014. Both solutions worked well, but the former is against Apple's TOS and requires spoofing things, so it's ultimately much less reliable than actual hardware.
