If your bank allows you to access all features from a browser, consider yourself lucky. Mine requires the app to authorize any online transaction.

Here in Poland most banks are usable via web browser + SMS for auth.

That's already pretty rare internationally and the odds of it still being the case in five years are zero.

I would argue that SMS is horribly insecure and should never be used for authentication.
