I'm sorry, but in that case, it wasn't worth running the app to begin with. You can either find a third-party app that lets you access the same content, such as Newpipe and YouTube, or you can use it from a web browser, such as your bank, and if you can't do either of those, then just don't fucking use that service.
I was willing to totally switch banks because my previous bank required me to use a mobile app and I did not want to do so. If I must go through some annoyance to use something that works properly, I will.
For me at least, running as much open source as I can possibly do is worth more than the inconvenience caused by not being able to use these shit services.
I’d be telling them to provide a work phone.
I was "required" to use duo. Okta worked fine. Might be the same in your situation, might be worth a looksee.
If your work requires you to use specific software, make them purchase you a device to run that software on and leave it at work.
Edit: nvm, i see that was brought up already
I agree. Not having access on my terms is absolutely a deal breaker for me and could cause me to stop doing business with a company.
