A lot of people cry about banking apps not working on phones that have been rooted/degoogled/whatever. But seriously, just use their website. The app is usually just a front end for the site anyway.

Sure I can use my bank’s website (and it’s a shit experience) but they still want me to have their own app for authentication… Don’t even offer anything else at this point.
