Genuinely curious here. Not trying to be critical. Why is a bank app necessary in the first place? Modern mobile browsers can run a pretty impressive HTML and JavaScript site, and I don’t have to worry about being forced to upgrade at an in opportune time.
- ashkulz 4y agoMost banking sites log you out very aggressively, and a lot of them require some sort of 2FA during login. It's quite inconvenient to have to do this login dance every time you need to make a transaction -- with an app, you can use a PIN or biometrics to start using it.
- eb0la 4y agoPSD2 certification - you must have some way to implement 2FA and a lot of banks prefer using an app for this that they can also use to gather information about customers than using strong authentication methods. I know a bank that makes you type your credit card PIN key after receiving an SMS in a mobile site... (cannot disclose which one).
