You have to wait one day only once, when enabling the feature. I agree that enabling developer mode could be a problem but mostly because it's buried below screens and multiple touches. As a data point, I enabled developer mode on all my devices since 2011 and no banking app complained about it. But it could depend by the different banking systems of our countries.

You don't use the HSBC or Citibank app then I assume?

They don't operate in my county AFAIK. However that reinforces my idea that the endgame will be a pristine Android phone in a drawer at home with the banking apps required for accessing their sites with 2FA and another phone in my pocket for daily use.

I’m not sure that Google/Android selling everyone two phones instead of one is the deterrent to this behavior that you envision.

		It's not a deterrent, far from that, but it's probably what I'll have to do to be able to carry with me a sane device.
