@jackeric very anecdotal but I saw a post a while ago that bank apps often contain a large file of junk data. It can be shrunk/removed entirely in the case of an emergency security update going out to reduce the number of people who don’t get it because their phone’s storage is full.

@jackeric same with TD Canada Trust's app. i uninstalled it cause it very explicitly wants to track its users. that's okay cause i can still use the webpage.
