Please let me know how I should deal with my banking apps in the future. I used LineageOS and Magisk to convince SafetyNet that everything was as it should be.

Now I read that SafetyNet was depreciated and LineageOS would become a red flag for banking apps (in Germany).

What is the way forward?

How can I use up-to-date firmware (i am fine with using something besides LineageOS) and still use my banking app on my phone?

    I can’t say for LineageOS, but on GrapheneOS my banking apps work without doing anything special, apart from enabling sandboxed Google Play services.

      I can vouch for this. I run completely unrooted GrapheneOS and no app has ever failed a safetynet test. Banking apps and Pokemon Go work just fine.

      I’ve never had issues with LineageOS either, but this is before the hardware attestation days.

        Well, unrooted is the key there.

        Safetynet is really only a challenge with rooted phones. Or sometimes being OEM unlocked.
