Is it possible to run Revolut on Ubuntu Touch?

Opolork

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.

@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.

Would Revolut app work in waydroid?

@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.
