OpenSource phones are crippled by the phone duopoly and apps for everything. Apps for some things you really need. My business bank now requires an app for "security" and that app won't run on rooted or alternative ROMs Androids. Least I've not managed to make it do so. I'm going to have to get an insecure, Google owned, muggle phone just to use our business banking at all.

We need the market regulating before OpenSource phones, or any alternatives, can thrive.

The website normally works fine. No app required.

This is true of my personal bank. But the business bank we use need a security device, but they have dropped that and there is now an app for Android or iOS. That's that does what is basically one time codes.
