Banking apps seem to be a motif among things that don't play well with privacy ROMs. My bank's website does everything I could want out of it. I think I might be ignorant to something.
- What about banking apps is especially compelling?
- How often do banks put must-have features behind an app?
- And should I be concerned that banks might move away from offering services through browsers?
I live in the Netherlands, where there's a QR-code-based payment method called iDeal, which you need a Dutch banking app or little code machine thing to use. With my bank, at least, there are a few things you can do with the website that you can't do with the app, but for day-to-day use the app's fine.
