There is a website that maintains the list: https://privsec.dev/posts/android/banking-applications-compatibility-with-grapheneos/

It’s not a location thing . . it’s a per-banking app thing. And specifically it’s a “does your banking app use Google Play integrity API” thing. On LineageOS running on my FairPhone 3 . . my banking apps all worked . . . until the day they didn’t. Here is a table reporting the current state of banking app comparability around the world . . but the next update from any specific bank could (and in my case did) break it -

PS. In the UK I did actually find an alternative to Google Wallet. . . Curve Pay. Not open source, but not dependent on Play Services. And enabled tap and pay on LineageOS.

The loss of most banking apps and Google Wallet (tap and pay). For me, those are the killer features you lose. And the reason I gave up on custom ROM’s on a FairPhone 3+ after many years.

/e/ OS is not a Linux based OS. It is a fork of LineageOS, which is a fork of AOSP. I run /e/ on a FairPhone 3+.

They are offering free classes for seniors to teach them how to use the apps.

Nice idea in theory . . . but here in the UK, increasingly customers are being left with little other choice. Between banking apps using push messages to verify credit/debit card transactions, closing of physical branches and requiring authentication via the app to log into the website . . . not using their app is becoming more and more difficult every day.

I ran various custom ROM’s for years on a FairPhone3+. It was great right up until the day all my banking apps stopped working. Banking app incompatibility is NOT the fault of GrapheneOS (or any other custom ROM) dev’s at all . . . but IMO this is the real problem today with any alternative mobile OS. Privacy vs. banking convenience. And yes, YMMV as some of them do work . . and mine did as well . . right up until the day they didn’t.

Dual UK/US citizen here . . . living in the Scottish highlands. Hate to break it to you mate, but Brits do not think about this. Ever. 1/3 of the countries on Earth celebrate their independence day as being independent FROM England. The US just isn’t that special.

PS. I personally spend quite a bit of time working to add Scotland to that list!
