My banking app. It has been years since I last checked if it works, maybe it works now but I don't care. I just use the browser to do my banking.

I have a little rinky dink credit union that only has a few locations locally, I got there's to work. I even got cash app (the most problematic) to work, zelle works through my bank app, venmo works, everything works. You may have to do a setting workaround for your app that allows Google to be unsandboxed for that app only, or at least that is my understanding of what it's doing.

If I remember right, it was this setting that finally made cash app work, I'm pretty sure my banking app just worked, but if I remember right, that hasn't always been the case.

I haven't tried Graphene, but I think I did get my banking app working on my backup phone running EvolutionX or something. I forgot the name of the ROM. 3-4 years ago when it was my main phone running Lineage, the banking app didn't work and then they messed up the stock ROM with Android 12, I just straight up gave up on Android and moved to iOS. Now Graphene is starting to sound better by the day, but I've since started using a banking app that outright blocks GrapheneOS -.- Suppose there's no way to get around having two phones if I want privacy AND support for all the apps I use.

ah, I had a feeling it'd be like this. Honestly, so long as there's a workaround (such as using my web browser), I'm still happy to switch to something like Graphene.

Thanks!
