All my banking apps and credit card apps have worked flawlessly on Graphene OS. You’re correct that tap to pay doesn’t work, which is a bummer. But that is just Google spyware as well, honestly.

I heard about this a while ago, but I remember the GrapheneOS team talking about suing Google if they didn’t allow them to pass play integrity checks like they should be able to, but Google just doesn’t let them. That’s the only reason tap to pay doesn’t work and some baking apps have issues, its Google purposefully limiting graphene OS so they have a competitive edge somewhere.

Sadly not the case here.

No they work. It’s not like LineageOS. Both Bank apps I now need, work on GrapheneOS but did not on LineageOS. It is my compromise without being compromised.

Ok what about my tags? What about notifying me if tags are following me what about tsp to pay what about satellite messaging.

Plenty of bank apps work just fine. None of the ones I’ve tried had problems, except Santander, which works perfectly after changing a setting.

Not here in Norway. You need BankID which is an app that well, requires a lot of stuff.

You can do online banking via a browser, it’s clunky but you generally just need to be more prepared

Yeah, but over here you pretty much forced to use aome sort of mobile 2fa

Manageable.

Personally I don’t need or want any of those things on my phone.
