As Google Chrome warns uBlock Origin may soon be disabled in the future. They’re going to eventually ban adblockers for chromium. We need to quickly respond with alternatives to android, we must end this market consolidation.

Hey I'm curious. Is there a speciffic feature Graphene doesn't support that your bank app requires? I'm in Australia, and am planning to use GrapheneOS on a Pixel phone, so I'm wondering if my bank app would be affected too.

Hello, pixel 8 grapheneOS user here. I was going to say that some bank apps don't work like chase bank and I went to look for a compatibility list and it said it worked. As it turns out, I just had to enable a setting for that app and now it works just fine. So I guess look at the compatibility list and the comments listed.

Thanks, my bank is compatible according to that list.

When I first started using graphene my bank app worked fine but at the beginning of this year my bank decided that it would dent access to any phone that is rooted.

So it isn't really an issue with graphene itself it is more that I dare to root my device and my arsehole bank believes I shouldn't do this!

Meh, for me it doesn't take any more effort to just log in from my browser. It just has an added step each time of having to receive a text and enter a code. I only really use it maybe twice a month anyway so it is no drama for me.
