> Google's SafetyNet will prevent you from using many crucial applications, like your bank's Android app
I don't think that installing your bank's app is a good idea. First, banks are interested in collecting as much data about their customers as possible so the app will be used as a spyware. Second, installing an app eliminates second factor for authorization - now if your phone gets hacked, the criminals will be able to steal all your savings.
It is better to use only bank's website from desktop computer and use a phone only as a second factor to confirm transactions.
