Holy wow, a person in the wild using SafetyNet apps on custom ROM?!

Any chance you can name and shame those apps for my further edification?

I currently have none, I just wanted to see if I would pass :D

But Google Pay requires it, so does my Health Insurance app (TK, which I don’t use), and the Banking App for DKB (fun fact, they enabled it in a normal update and left many people suddenly without access).

Pretty sure my banking apps - Monzo, Starling and Curve require SafetyNet. Also, I use Google Pay. And I'm running them on a custom ROM - Arrow OS.

I don't understand what the problem with that should be though.
