As much as I’d love to completely get rid of Google/Apple apps, it’s not always possible. My main concern is that I am sometimes required to use two factor authentication apps such as my banking app for example.

I expect these are only available on android/apple store, so my question is, is it somehow possible to emulate android on let’s say pinephone (or any other Linux phone) and get these two factor authentication apps still work?

    I normally use web browser too, but bank imposes 2 factor authentication via their app for sign ins.

      Is the 2FA some standard like TOTP? I know I have this issue where no banks in my area support anything like that. But at least they support email 2fa.

      To add on this, some banks do not even allow you to use their websites on phones if you’re not using desktop site. They’ll give you a big pop up telling you to use their app and block everything else
