Banking apps begin officially allowing GrapheneOS

Original: Around a dozen banking apps began specifically permitting GrapheneOS Article URL: https:// grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS

Around a dozen banking applications have started to specifically permit GrapheneOS, the hardened privacy-focused Android operating system, meaning users on it are no longer blocked by app integrity checks. The news was shared by the GrapheneOS project itself and picked up on developer forums, where it was received as a milestone for privacy-conscious mobile users who have long struggled to use banking apps on alternative operating systems.

Why now: Banking apps have historically been incompatible with alternative Android systems, so their official support for GrapheneOS marks a significant shift for privacy-focused users.
