I can’t root my phone because I don’t have an image for it (Moto G73) although I’d like to, but for some reason my banking app thinks it’s rooted and refuses to work. This happened just after I updated it, it wasn’t happening before.

Edit: I’m regretting not getting the Motorola Edge 40 Neo, which also costs £250, but is slightly better in multiple ways, and seems like it has better root support.

    Then I had to go through this carry-on where I had to send in all sorts of bits of info and then the video of me waving just so they let me install the app again.

    That sounds good. Otherwise anyone could steal your bank account by saying “I lost my phone.”

      They would still need my password to sign in so really they’re just adding unnecessary layers of complication but they’re not actually adding any security since anyone who can know my password can fake all the other stuff as well.
