@moz@fosstodon.org @paddyduke@mastodon.social Yeah my bf had a similar issue with his banking app. There was some way to get around it, but I think he also ended up going back to android. Do they not have hardcopy licences any more?

@econads@mendeddrum.org @paddyduke@mastodon.social there's hardcopy licenses, and web banking, but the my.gov stuff *really* want an auth app (and the covid tracing app was a dumpster fire). I'm kinda thinking I'll keep the new moto phone, possibly as a backup and if it still annoys me in a couple of months buy a fairphone 4 or 5. I'm now thinking I'll wait a month before selling the FP3 just in case there's another app on it that turns out to be crucial and needs to be unregistered.

@econads@mendeddrum.org @paddyduke@mastodon.social NSW definitely has hardcopy licenses and I prefer it, not least because it removes the temptation to hand an unlocked phone to a police officer. (your implied right not to give NSW Police full access is very vague at the best of times, but why make it easy)
