The only reason they want you to download their app is to farm more data about you. They will push you to huge extent just to collect more data.

To share an egregious example, Mercury (which is a great bank) sent KYC notice literally saying "we noticed you use app outside of declared locations" for one of my friends companies. And yes they push their app hard.
