        Hi.

        Happy New Year to ye!

        I'd like to create a Revolut account but don't have Android on another phone. I have UT on a Fairphone 2. Any suggestions on some workaround?

        Thanks.

        How can you trust that an app really won't send some company your location data, when you tell it not to? The only way you can trust a program not to do something it isn't supposed to do is if it is free software. ~ RMS

          @opolork Revolut don't depend on their web version to authenticate, manage account or basically do anything other than view some info, that makes it hard for any developer to make an app for it. Having such an APP can only be made by the company itself, which for Ubuntu Touch case seems not possible right now. Hopefully in the future.

          However and I wish the Forum could excuse me for bringing an out of topic solution.. But, Android Studio can do that for you, if you don't have an actual phone. This way you can still enjoy your UT.

            Hi @jin-diggs. Thanks for the info. I'll give Android Studio a pass, thanks. Yes, hopefully Revolut will come to UT somehow, someday. 🙂

                @mihael If it would I presume it would be easy to just install Waydroid on Linux desktop even if it is not supported on a certain device model. But unfortunately Revolut is blocking rooted phones these past two years or so afaik (a "feature" power users must love) so it is likely not that easy.

                  @mihael Don't even bother. The app has very high security and can recognize any unofficial container. Only hope is Android Studio since it runs on a recognized Kernel environment.
