Never? Unless you give up on NFC, banking apps and all those goodies.

  We've had NFC, banking, etc on rooted phones and even on windows desktops loaded with malware for decades now. Clearly there's a tradeoff that can be made here and the banks still find it worthwhile to offer the extra features and save money on staff even if it occasionally causes fraud.

    Yes but it is troublesome and AFAIK getting more difficult each year.

  > Never? As the post you directly responded to never said the word never, I'm thinking you where actually responding to the previous comment. In which case: yes, never. > Unless you give up on I don't refuse to install apps, I have apps for both my primary banking organisations on my phone, I don't intend to write apps, I don't intend to provide extra fodder for their platforms and claims of their size. Most apps don't need the things that not being a native app means they can not support. NFC there might be uses for, but not that are irreplaceable that I can immediately think of, and you can access things like the phone's camera so other features like NFC might happen in that realm too.

    Banking apps tend to refuse to run on custom ROMs, even if unrooted.
