At this time, I'd get a device on which I can install GrapheneOS:

Note that the particular device unit (not model) must have an unlockable bootloader (so, probably not a unit that was solid by a carrier that disables this):

Can you run normal banking apps on graphne?

Yes you can! I do a lot of banking on GrapheneOS.

You might want to check this site out to see if your bank app works though: https://privsec.dev/posts/android/banking-applications-compa...

Even if your app isn't listed there, there's still a chance that it'll work. Mine isn't listed on that site, but it still works with no issues.

Wow, thanks a million for that link. My banking app was not working but I found "Exploit protection compatibility mode" in the relevant thread, and now it works again.

I will back this up by saying that all the banking apps (plural) I run on GrapheneOS run perfectly fine. I don't even have Google Play Services installed, either.
