[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 85179, post: 903488"] Stock Android (with GAPPS) provide already both natively. (iPhones are much better) (normal) Permissions doesn't matter as Apps are isolated in Android so they can't access other Apps/ Apps data. Biometric are mostly used as 2FA. And they're also more secure then a simple PIN/ password and also protects against "shoulder surfing"/ cameras. Secure phones securely store these data in extra hardware like Titan M chip (in Google Pixel) or Secure Enclave (in iPhone) and can't be hacked from a standalone guy. Other phones aren't recommend for these sensitive data. SMS isn't encrypted so highly insecure and should be avoided at least for important stuff like banking and 2FA. [/QUOTE]
