      Not all Finnish banks require play services for their apps, if any. Mine works just fine on eOS. Don’t know about Mobiilivarmenne, if you’d rather use that

        Is this a recent change?
        I don’t know about play services, but a few years ago I received errors that the security of my device was compromised or something, if I installed a different OS, and couldn’t use banking apps.

        Edit: come to think of it, it wasn’t “a few” years, more like “many years” ago.
