    USA, and there are quite a few banks that only allow digital check deposits through their official app and not the website. Not having access to those is a dealbreaker for me, and I simply dont have the time or patience to switch banks and lose out on the advantages I chose my existing banks for, just to be able to switch phones. It would be a lot of work to keep the feature set I already have. Additionally, these banking apps tend to check if a phone has been rooted or jailbroken and will disable themselves if they see evidence of such.

      If you’re not willing to fight this crap then you have no right to complain down the road when they back you into a corner you don’t want to be in.

      If you’re not part of the solution, then you’re likely part of the problem.

          I get that and agree, but that’s what they’re banking on to continue taking away your rights bit-by-bit. Where’s the line you’re not willing to let them cross? You’d better start defending it well before they get to that point, or their momentum will just run you over by the time they finally get there.
