1. No Root
  2. No Bootlocker unlock
  3. No Custom ROM
  4. Needs Google Play Service
  5. Needs to be installed via Google PLay Store
  6. Needs my phone number
  7. Needs that SIM in that phone
  8. Needs that SIM in that slot
  9. Needs location
  10. Works only via Mobile Data
  11. Developer options disabled
  12. Needs someother app to be uninstalled
  13. Disable VPN (Firewall apps use that)

So for bank stuff to need a seperate phone, other for whatsapp (and other spyware) and then your main thing. And when you go out people ask questions.

I don’t understand my apps are developed with their security dependent of the OS, why can’t they make secure apps

I have a degoogled phone (LineageOS) and I was able to get my banking apps working by isolating them in a work profile using Insular and also putting MicroG and Aurora Store in there. MicroG tricks the apps into thinking you are connected to Google Play Services. IMO its better than having a 2nd or 3rd phone.

It is hit or miss with app updates, I don’t mess with bank stuff breaking randomly
