This story with restricting users is a similar one to Manifest V3 in Chromium.

But we don't have anything like FF as an alternative to go from Android. Especially considering banks require "certified OS".

I don't do banking on my phone. I really don't understand why anyone would. If I can't get to my PC or laptop, I'm probably near an ATM. I've already given so much autonomy to Google/Alphabet/Apple, I won't give them access to my bank account.

even if you use a computer to do banking, like i do, some banks still require an app for 2FA, or windows...

ATMs won't let me send money or do any other kind of maintenance

Are these limited to only "approved" apps? Usually you can add an auth to an app via a qr code or string. Why can't people use whatever auth app they want, or even just roll their own?

it's something nonstandard, so there are no approved apps, but it is only the app provided by the bank and nothing else. there used to be two, one for auth only and one for onlinebanking itself, which was optional because you could use auth to log into the web. as i understand it they merged the two apps and now only support the all-in-one app. apparently the banking features of the app can be turned off, but i could not see if that can be locked too.
