And people wonder why I root.

First I start with a user-friendly OS, like Graphene, Lineage, DivestOS.

My bank apps won't run on a rooted phone. Neither will 2FA authenticator apps that most employers require that you have.

If an employer requires you to have a specific app then they should be providing you a device on which to use it!

[-] jaschen@lemm.ee 5 points 3 weeks ago

I have worked for both a fortune 100 and startups. Both don't provide it. They do, however, paid for my monthly cellphone bill.

[-] smeg@feddit.uk 3 points 3 weeks ago

So how do they react when you say "that app doesn't work on my phone", or if you're feeling mischievous, "I don't have a smartphone"?

[-] MagicPterodactyl@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 weeks ago

They should, but they most definitely do not.

[-] smeg@feddit.uk 3 points 3 weeks ago

Guess you pull out the old classic "oh, I don't have a smartphone" if you find they're being difficult about it!

Magisk module SafetyNetFix used to bypass that and let banking apps work

I had good experiences (a year ago when I last tried it)

Don't root a main phone device. You are creating a very large attack surface
