Funny story: I had to root my phone to get the Fidelity app to work.
I installed lineageOS, which is passes the Google SafetyNet check out-of-the-box. So most things just work, including my local Credit Union's app.
But lineageOS fails the CTS profile check on my phone. Fidelity checks this after you log in and shows a "For security reasons your account has been blocked..." message.
So I had to root the phone to install a CTS profile fixer, and then more hacks to hide the fact it was rooted.
After that Fidelity worked, but requested root permission every time I launched it until I figured out how to permanently disable that.

Netflix was similar, but not quite as annoying.
