This has been my point for the last 5 or 10 years. That's why I have a "home phone" with banking apps, 2FA and important stuff installed. It has no SIM card and never leaves home. For everything else I have my "street phone".
- closewith 4y agoMany banking apps require a phone number/SIM card to operate, but assuming you can copy codes, etc, what happens when you want to use those apps out and about (or abroad) if the phone never leaves home?
- Dr_ReD 4y agoThis too... :(
- rodolphoarruda 4y ago> when you want to use those apps out and about Fortunately, my lifestyle places me out of that use case.
- Dr_ReD 4y agoYes, but then again, I'm looking at seven older smartphones —right now— on my desk, and only one is even capable of running /all/ those apps. I had to buy it just because of that. 'cause even my Huawei P-Smart 2021 (currently in my pocket and not among the others on my desk) can't run some of those pesky apps.

- rodolphoarruda 4y agoI can use my credit card.
