@mosiwo@mastodon.social @openrisk@mastodon.social @markhughes@mastodon.social @ironicbadger@techhub.social Yeah, 'official' banking apps.
What do the banks need those for?
To track you?
To spam you with product offers?
What does an 'official' blackbox app offer over an audited opensource app in terms of security?
God forbid that you could use one app for all banks, and would not have to learn new app to switch banks. Or features could be added to the app without paying for premium banking services. :bunhdgoogly:

@bunny @mosiwo @openrisk @markhughes having previously worked in the mobile payments space there’s quite a lot you can do with official access to the Secure Enclave’s - especially the Samsung Knox stuff - to increase security. Not a fan of this as a user but I can see why a bank might be.
