Personal Consumer Issues • Mobile finance apps - do you use them?

Resurrecting this after reading this article about young men at Atlanta bars being drugged, kidnapped, and having their phone compromised and used to transfer thousands out of their accounts.

I've loaded most of my financial apps on my phone and tied to face id but going to go through them all and consider either turning off face id or removing the app completely for some of the accounts where I don't transact via my phone app (eg: everywhere other than my primary bank). Also going to read up and turn on the new Stolen Device Protection feature to make it harder for someone to change my passcode if they have obtained my unlocked phone.
