alt Hacker NewsCan you not setup your work email through a regular email client? I thought the days of being locked into Outlook specifically went away with Exchange. Everywhere I've worked since has been able to.
Also, what kind of banking are people doing that requires an app? I genuinely don't know what it could be.

It's way more comfortable to login with fingerprint and not going through a longer login to the website.
Especially since in many countries it requires a national e-ID that is an app on your phone.

It's nice to have widgets.

Close to every bank in the EU requires their user to have an app, for MFA (both for logging in and for validating transactions - transfers, payments). They use the smartphone's TPM. I have yet to see one that allows you to use your own MFA app.
The few I've seen that don't require it will validate the same through text messages (not everyone has a smartphone); though if you associate their app even once, you're screwed - the app it is from now on.
