Prerequisites

This section covers how to submit or update a banking app report.

Submit a new app report

There are several methods for GrapheneOS users to contribute their banking app report:

Method Description Action
GitHub Fill out form on issue-tracker using your GitHub account SUBMIT REPORT
Non-GitHub View gist → Raw → Save template markdown file to fill out. Gist
Curl Terminal → curl -O → paste copied url (gist form .md template) ⟶ Copy link address

Alternatively, curl and pipe the output directly into vi/vim/neovim for editing, example:

curl https://gist.githubusercontent.com/akc3n/e845078ddbbb28ada0dd055c51ec45af/raw/c2bb563db726b80491a59c68d7f15c0897f563a0/banking-app-report-issue-form.md\?T | nvim -

Update status of app report

Please avoid opening a new issue to update the status of a banking app report.

Instead, use CTRL + F on this page or the issue tracker to search for the app and open it's Report. Then, simply add your update as a comment to the existing report.

For non-GitHub users, if you have tried all the combinations from these possible workaround solutions and still cannot resolve your specific banking app compatibility issue, feel free to contact me for further assistance.


Note

GrapheneOS has a detailed guide for app developers on how to support GrapheneOS with the hardware attestation API. Direct use of the hardware attestation API provides much higher assurance than using SafetyNet so these apps have nothing to lose by using a more meaningful API and supporting a more secure OS.

GrapheneOS users are strongly encouraged to share this documentation with app developers enforcing only being able to use the stock OS. Send an email to the developers and leave a review of the app with a link to this information. Share it with other users and create pressure to support GrapheneOS rather than locking users into the stock OS without a valid security reason. GrapheneOS not only upholds the app security model but substantially reinforces it, so it cannot be justified with reasoning based on security, anti-fraud, etc.

Refer to https://github.com/PrivSec-dev/banking-apps-compat-report/issues/342 or the official GrapheneOS announcement on Mastodon/Twitter/Bluesky for more information.
