I feel like my local bank etc. is relatively shitty in terms of software, so I am expecting it to not work anywhere other than android & iOS. Local map apps and local messaging app is the bigger issue for me, though.

You should check out Sapio maybe someone has already checked if your banking app works!

Yea it can be tricky. If you have the time to test it out its worth the privacy upgrade.

Just be sure you have an accurate image of your default OS, for your carrier if applicable, so you can revert.
