  These things will very likely not work on non-proprietary devices.

  Depends on your bank. Most work on alternate OS (like GrapheneOS), and of course some don’t. privsec.dev/…/banking-applications-compatibility-…

  If an app (especially bank) doesn’t work, I forward them this and try to ELI5 that their current method is flawed and less secure: grapheneos.org/…/attestation-compatibility-guide

    Going for plastic when paying instead of using a digital wallet, using the banks’ websites for transactions instead of the app.

      Oh, yeah, absolutely. Mobile apps should only ever be used for check-scanning or for features that the online banking simply doesn’t allow (which would be messed up of the bank to do); same with mobile wallets.
