As an American outside the US, getting money to/from family used to be … complicated. Venmo literally kicked me off the platform within a few months of living here and you used to not be able to update the app if you used a different country’s App Store. Long story short, Apple has allowed my mom to easily send me money on my birthday. Sure, with the slow af American banking system, I can’t spend it for days, but at least she isn’t mailing me a check anymore.
