The HSBC UK app runs perfectly well on my Android phone, including full biometrics, 2FA for the website and for major functionality like transferring money.

I have at least a dozen apps installed on my phone that are not from the Play Store - a mixture of other stores (Samsung/Epic) and apps that are not from any store but I've compiled myself, or downloaded APKs directly from the developer website.

This isn't true.
