The phone will be used as MFA, and that will have requirements especially on Android versions. So it is going to be harder to escape it, it is darn comfortable using Android as a MFA. Many banks still use a custom device for MFA here but is is slowly going away.

BankID in Sweden and similar in other European countries.

For now the custom issued 2FA is still an inconvenient option, but nearly everyone uses the phone for 2FA as it is so much faster.
