Doesn't fit "small". It was also just an example, my actual requirements are longer. I need my banking apps to work too, for example, which likely automatically limits me to Android/iOS. No idea how good they work with Sailfish for example.

What's wrong with your banks website?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I need transaction codes (essentially OTP). Even if I used their website. For that alone I need a supported phone.

So your bank doesn't support any other method than a cell phone for 2fa?

I would be allergic to a bank that requires me to use a device that's notorious for being compromised for "security".

Does your banking app work with waydroid? If yes, then you can use pinephone

Might be worth a shot, but typically they even refuse to work on rooted androids, so I assume whatever security mechanism they expect, it won't be there.
