Re: "Opinions: use of banking apps on graphene"
I've had no luck with my banks app on a dedicated "Googled" user profile. Have had to resort to using Graphenes browser to add it to my desktop as a webapp.

I could live without my banking app if I could still use tap to pay.

I think you probably stand a better chance with GrapheneOS than with any other non-stock firmware. I don't use my phone for banking, so I have no personal experience. But from talking to other Graphene users, I get the impression that the experiences are mixed, and it's hard to predict whether it will work. Depends on the bank and the region, among other things.
Even if it works today, it might not work tomorrow. Despite Graphene's best efforts to appear "respectable", it's still seen as subversive by corporations.
I didn't even use my bank's app prior to using Graphene, so wasn't going to start now. I just do banking at my PC
today my wife's bank app didn't start telling her she has to disable debug or something.
i first panicked because i thought the app won't run with an open bootloader, i have read things like that. she runs lineage.
turned out the app required to disable developer options.
