So make sure to back up anything you don’t want wiped before you start. And the first step of the process, unlocking the bootloader, will also completely erase your data. Some types of root will also stop your phone receiving official OTA (over-the-air) software updates. Ideally your ‘old’ phone, not your current one - in case something bad does happen in the process. Rooting your phone will also invalidate its warranty, which is why we tend to only recommend trying it out on older Androids.
It’s because it’s unsafe, and using an unusually exposed device for this sort of stuff can prove costly to both the bank and you.
A few methods still allow for this sort of access, but banks don’t block rooted Androids because they are party poopers. This is why banking apps can’t be used with most forms of rooted Android. Not all apps will work on a rooted phone (Image credit: Google)
