I deleted by bank app from my cell phone for this reason alone.

Don't bank apps require logging even explicitly even if the phone is unlocked?

Yeah almost all finance apps do. Used to work at Robinhood and this was actually my feature, otherwise we'd just see ridiculous levels of fraud and have to end up eating the cost of it.

Apparently not all cash apps do. My bank apps require some form of login but things like Venmo do not.
