Will banking apps and NFC pay finally work?
Doesn't that depend on google play services? If so, "probably not, but then again it works currently if you install play services on a separate user profile (or on your main, defeating the purpose of grapheneOS to begin with but more power to you)."
Tell google/banks to stop requiring the spyware, they won't but at least it's better then telling the secure OS to install just a little spyware just so you don't need to carry a wallet.
I would still need to be able to use my banking app to check my balance. That's more than just needing "to carry a wallet." That's the difference of more than $450 in mistakes as that's what happened when i didn't get a live-update to my account prior to the advent of smartphone banking apps. Fuck 5/3. -a dumpster-fire of a banking organization if i've ever seen one.
cant you use a web browser for that ltask ? All my banks let me log in via a web browser fir that at least.
