It seems like a lot of things you want to do on your phone are unnecessary. Why not just use the banking websites in your browser at home? Why not just keep a paper calendar?
All banks I have an account need an app in order to login. I've tried several times to use the browser but I always get to use their app as 2fa. None of the 4 banks I have an account let you use the browser without installing and verifying your phone via official app. It's ridiculous and annoying. As of calendar I just use the AOSP calendar app but sometimes I need to share my work schedule with my wife and that would be great to just share a calendar without sending her the screenshot of the days I have work. Besides that I just could use paper with no problems at all.
A paper calendar is very inconvenient. I have found the Nextcloud calendar to be much more useful. I can accept invites and send out invites
I’m wondering this too. Does your bank not have a website OP? Webapps are the way to go for tracker heavy apps if possible
All the banks I have an account need an app in order to login. I've tried to use them using the browser but they all request you to use their app as 2fa. So the app doesn't work and I just can't do shit using only my browser.
Wow what a shitty design
