> with the new security standards (which are good), banks insist on having you install their proprietary app since you say this, I assume you are in the EU or UK? I've heard that several EU banks offer a second 2FA method besides the app, such as hardware code generator[1]. In the UK, banks are actually required by the regulator to offer at least one method that doesn't require a mobile phone [2]. You could tell your bank "I can't use a smartphone" and they will probably be able to assist you (or, worst case scenario, you could find a bank that can) [1] https://www.unicreditbank.hu/en/individual/banking/electronic_services/strong_customer_authentication/hardware_token.html https://www.unicreditbank.hu/en/individual/banking/electroni...
