This is a very far assessment. I didn't really think about banking apps. I don't do a ton with it, but it's very nice to check on the go. I don't use a ton of specific things on my phone that I think would have issues in that way, but I'd never know until I try. Most of what I've seen has convinced me that I should probably get an older refurbished phone and test these things out before actually attempting to move my sim card over. I want to be very idealistic now but who's to say what that looks like when I have it in my hand every day?
The brick wall will tell you. I wanted to be very idealistic, but I didn’t want to go all Stallman either.
I was willing disconnect from the people around me, live without social media, stop watching silly cat videos and read my news on a web browser. However, living without a bank account is where I had to draw the line.
