I’m lucky my banking app works (GrapheneOS), as it’s now requiring 2FA with the app anytime I login on the browser. Can’t use an actually secure form like TOTP. At least they now allow passwords over 8 characters (yes, serious).

      You are being downvoted because you’re factually wrong. While Android (especially on Samsung devices) had been getting more locked down over the years, even unrooted it has way more freedom than an iPhone. For instance, you can install any number of APKs, without jumping through any hoops.

        For now. Google’s recent patterns would seem to indicate the future trajectory of Android to become even more hobbled.

        I doubt it will ever be as closed as iPhone but there’s a point where the door is technically still open, just not in a way that really means much.

        As a I said before, I don’t care about downvotes. Be my guest.

          That’s ok an all, but I assumed that you do care about making a false statement, which was the point of my response, to let you know.
