Banks could simply come together and develop an open banking standard for customers. Would probably save them a lot of money too, since the development of their stupid apps presumably costs them a lot.

Yeah, but think about all the data they can gather for their marketing team and the ads they can send over notifications.

no way bro that would be too simple and easy for the customer! nah best to just have tracker injected bloated apps infesting everyone's phones.
