My bank requires either the mobile app, or a physical device you have to put your card into and scan a qr code with. Very inconvenient, especially on the go.

Fortunately though my bank’s mobile app works on GrapheneOS, but that might not be the case for everyone.

Damn, that’s awful. Can’t you just set the settings once, then delete the app and pair it like a normal Bluetooth device? Would imagine that should work, if it works with your laptop as well.

The article states they cicumvemt androids privacy controls, but doesn’t say how. As far as I’m aware, WiFi access point scanning is behind the location permission and service for precisely this reason. So if you just deny that permission, you should be fine.

I wasn’t able to use my WiFi ssid in home assistant automations without having location services enabled, for example.

Qbittorrent has a feature to execute a command on torrent complete iirc. You might be able to write a few ffmpeg commands to verify and delete/move/whatever based on that result. Not very user-friendly though ofc and requires some bash knowledge.
