You can root your phone to remove all security features, if you don't mind malware having full access to your data. You should probably cancel your debit and credit cards if you do, and lock your credit score, cause if you're doing stuff like that you won't have to wait long till Have I Been Pwned notifies you you're in a data breach.
Rooting doesn't automatically give root permissions to just any app that wants it - you still have to allow it.
Many (maybe even all) banking apps won't even install or launch if your phone is rooted.
Yea... I though about rooting, but heck no, too much security problem, I don't want more anxiety. Guess I'll just have to keep use my cheap secondary phone to take pictures as a workaround... 😓
