I believe it's usually that they attempt to use some of the parts in the Google Play framework that is (currently) not fully supported by the Google compability layer in GrapheneOS, but the developers does an amazing job on trying to keep up with stock AOSP changes and make apps work equally good as on a stock Google image.
That, and sometimes just checking whether the phone is running an image signed by Google and refuses to run if not.
Personally, I've only had issues with one app, and that's Pushover (a push notification service). It tries to use Google Play for notifications and I refuse to install that for this single app.
