Now the bank's app knows what other apps you have and demands that you delete them 😂.
But it's the system we deserve; we've allowed it.

The more they push, the fastest Bitcoin wins
I don't have that hope; humanity is too stupid.
Most humans dont study, they work on incentives
When their 700€ CBDC gets blocked or frozen they will be push to other solutions
The solution most will choose is compliance
Depends on how hard they get hit, eventually the will switch
The more they push, the fastest Bitcoin wins

Need to sandbox those apps...
Oi mat'! Yau got' a laissns' for that' app on yauh phon'?
I wonder how many votes it'll take to get us out of this mess!
I wouldn't lose a single second thinking whether to change fucking bank. This is outrageous at the very least.
Time to pull your money out of hsbc
What a shame. Time for a move?
This is fucking nonsense. I had to talk to chase to unblock my account which was blocked as I sent money to my wife on Zelle. They asked if I was expecting anything in return. I said THANKYOU would’ve been nice. 😂
It’s…
A fucking password manger?
This is both retarded and insane from multiple perspectives. Seriously is this real?
beyond insane.
It's not because it's Bitwarden, it's because an app has been installed from a source other than the Play Store, and thus hasn't been audited by Google and installed with the verification of Play Protect. HSBC doesn't want apps that aren't Play Protect-certified installed on the device. Android is merely showing the user a list of all such apps, so that they know what to uninstall if they wish to comply with HSBC's mandate. The HSBC app doesn't know what the offending apps are, merely that at least one offending apps is installed. Install Bitwarden directly from the Play Store rather than another source, and the HSBC app won't complain.
Yes, it's still utterly stupid, especially when you consider the fact that the same banks are willing to let customers access and manage their accounts in any web browser, which is much less secure. No, the UK banks won't budge on this, they've been doing it for over 10 years in various forms, it's a continuous cat-and-mouse game.
The extra (nominal) security guarantee afforded by Play Protect is not a requirement for EU PSD2 SCA authenticator app compliance, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone in HSBC's liability/cybersecurity department advised them to implement this for some misguided reason. That said, I'm running Android 14 on a non-rooted device with several apps installed from sources other than the Play Store (including Bitwarden from F-Droid), and all of my UK banking apps (of which I have 12, as I have accounts with almost every bank that operates in the UK, though HSBC is notably not one of them) function just fine. Suffice it to say that if First Direct (an online-only subsidiary of HSBC UK that is routinely ranked as the top bank nationally for customer service) implements this and refuses to revert, I'm closing my accounts with them.
Time to start having one phone for your official business and another for everything else...
we need to keep fighting this ... like this is in no way shape or form okay !!!
In a way I kinda welcome this. I don't like being told, "You have to do that through our app." This gives me the perfect excuse.
Wow. What the identified app about, how does it threaten them?
Its a password manager. A damn good one, too.
😵
Crazy.... nostr:nprofile1qyfjqamnwvaz7tmsw4e8qmr9wpskwtn9wvq3qamnwvaz7tmzdaehgu3wwd5x7uqqyr70wzj9e75p064gzwum4z3ht4cn6vtf7j3870w2c02fzyklvlfhud6wqfg . We are being shutdown , censored and controlled more and more as days go by.
The small print on banks T&Cs state that your money is owned by them when you deposit it. My hope for the new year is that the masses wake up and unplug from the matrix 🤞
I just gave me an other new year goal today, to go to some local stores I really like and offer them to support them in setting up Bitcoin payments.
I will probably use https://github.com/SwissBitcoinPay/app/pull/356
Seems a good option for easy implementation, while having the option to use easy bank payouts for those, which are not yet easy with storing in Bitcoin.
HSBC Bank had a commercial whith the slogan "Your DNA will be your fingerprint" !
Why are u supprting those dark occult agenda vampires ?
I would never !

You guys need to learn how to use compartmentalised profiles if you want to install literal shitcoin apps on your mobiles.
😂
welcome, learn fast, at least faster than that 😂😂😂
I hope it's a fake!
"We see you've downloaded a password manager. Given our policy to only allow 5 alphanumeric character passwords that we store unsalted on an AS400, this is in breach of our digital systems usage policy."
The banking app should get removed from google play for abusing an API. If this screenshot is real that is.
Maby the actual best thing is to report this intrusion to the Bank. I am sure there are employees, which are actually intrested in happy costumers 😉
"Apps within the same profile can communicate with mutual consent and it's no different for sandboxed Google Play."

In GrapheneOS I think one can restrict apps from being able to see other apps, with the hardened exploit protection ’native code debugging’
Please correct when I am wrong nostr:nprofile1qqstnr0dfn4w5grepk7t8sc5qp5jqzwnf3lejf7zs6p44xdhfqd9cgslscw4j
How unprofessional: They misspelled "you need to find a new bank"...
The banks are going crazy; perhaps one day they'll go so far as to ask us to delete the balance in our bank accounts.
Android still allows apps to detect what other apps are installed? That's as much an OS problem as an app problem, assuming you didn't have to consent to some kind of device management profile first.
It's not unreasonable that an app developer would flag a sideloaded version of a password manager. It likely points to problems far more often than it points to people enacting extra-strong security controls or doing legitimate local builds. But it's not reasonable if the OS enables this capability by default.
