In my country we use an app to identify ourselves online but also in a shop, e.g. when picking up packages. It is called BankID.
Many of these purposes would not work on a laptop and if they do it would require you to use their proprietary dongle, or whatever that is called, to input a certain code. So you got another extra device to carry around.
These guys won’t give a fuck about making a linux compatible app for this.

Is this norway or are there other countries with the same system / same name for the same kinda thing?
Anyway in norway i have never ever been asked to use bankid for any other purpose than banking, payments or any kind of official service online. And i have a physical token that i received only 3-4 weeks ago so i dont need a smartphone for that.
Btw bankid for mobile works fine on custom roms, ive been using that for a long time. I wonder if it would work on waydroid?
And I know it would work right now on Graphene, but that does not guarantee it will in the next years still. If there is no official stance on it, apps like this can break anytime something major gets updated.
Does not work for everything.

Sounds pretty stupid, never underestimate humanity to fuck up swimming in the ocean and laying in the sun.
Norway? I used to have a standalone token for BankID when I lived there, but that was until 2011.
Yeah, those aren’t being issued anymore, but if you already have one it still works as a backup.
I mean i just got mine like 3-4 weeks ago but sure…
So what does the app do then? Can you bank without it?
Never heard of this and the absence of a standalone hardware thing sounds nuts.
It’s just 2fa

Sweden. So the use of it is probably different.
